Strolling Along the Autumn Han River for Ecological Exploration... Seoul City Opens Applications for the 'Green Han River Project'

Various Ecological Programs Including Collaborative 'Creating an Ecological Map'

[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Cheol-young] The Seoul Metropolitan Government's Hangang Project Headquarters announced on the 5th that it will carry out the 'Green Hangang Project' throughout November, allowing people to enjoy the beautiful autumn atmosphere and directly observe the ecological value of the Hangang River at the Hangang Ecological Parks, where abundant nature can be experienced in the heart of the city.

The Green Hangang Project can be participated in at six ecological parks, hidden treasures located throughout the Hangang River, and various programs are prepared, including the individually participatory 'Making an Ecological Map' that is completed together.

'Making an Ecological Map' is a self-participation program where park visitors explore the ecological parks on their own and then express the living organisms such as animals, plants, and insects they discovered throughout the park on a bulletin board in various ways.

This program helps citizens who visit the ecological parks to become not only 'users' of the Hangang Park but also 'mediators' connecting the park and nature, and 'value producers' who directly create the value of the ecosystem through active park use. Depending on the location of each ecological park, there are different sights, activities, and ecological characteristics. Participants can check the introduction of each park and join at their preferred park.

If you wish to participate or want more details, search for 'Green Hangang' on the Seoul Metropolitan Government Public Service Reservation. Hwang In-sik, head of the Seoul Hangang Project Headquarters, said, “We hope that people exhausted by the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic can heal and recharge at the Hangang Ecological Parks, natural spots in the city. We will continue to offer various programs where people can experience the nature and ecology of the Hangang River.”
