Seoul City Plants 7,300 Trees and Improves Facilities at Nanji Camping Site... Signs Business Agreement with KB Securities

Private Companies and Organizations Continue 'Citizen Participation Hangang Forest' with 10,000 Trees Planted This Year

[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Cheol-young] The Nanji Camping Site, a representative leisure space in Seoul, will become even more lush and pleasant.

On the 18th, the Seoul Metropolitan Government's Hangang Project Headquarters announced that on the 17th, it signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with KB Securities for the 'Nanji Camping Site Citizen Participation Hangang Forest Creation' to create green spaces and improve facilities at the Nanji Camping Site.

The 'Nanji Camping Site Citizen Participation Hangang Forest Creation' MOU primarily involves planting about 7,300 trees and flowers at the Nanji Camping Site to create a lush leisure space. Facility improvements include creating photo zones with colorful blooming flowers as a backdrop, installing electronic gates for convenient access to nearby walking trails, and operating camping programs for socially vulnerable groups.

Approximately 7,300 trees will be planted along a 290-meter boundary section of the Nanji Camping Site. Deciduous trees that provide cool shade and create beautiful scenery will be planted in appropriate locations to create a more pleasant environment. A new electronic gate will be installed to allow access to the Hangang riverside deck walking trail. Although the Nanji Hangang Park deck walking trail is established along the boundary of the Nanji Camping Site, access has been interrupted, making it difficult for campers to use the trail. Therefore, an electronic gate connecting the camping site and the walking trail will be created to make strolling easier.

After facility improvements, as part of social contribution activities, camping programs for vulnerable families will be promoted. About 26 families will be invited through cooperation with welfare foundations in Seoul, and special programs such as recreation and barbecue parties will be operated.

Meanwhile, the Hangang Project Headquarters will actively discover idle spaces within Hangang Park that require green space creation and continue to create 'Citizen Participation Hangang Forests' in collaboration with various private organizations and companies. Yoon Jong-jang, head of the Seoul Hangang Project Headquarters, said, “Nanji Camping Site, loved for its excellent accessibility and beautiful scenery, can transform into a more comfortable and enjoyable space through this agreement, which is very meaningful,” and added, “We will continue to create and maintain Hangang forests so that citizens visiting Hangang Park can enjoy their leisure time in a pleasant environment.”
