Incheon City is considering a plan to create a large park in the Gyeyangsan area to secure a northern regional hub park and forest recreational space.


The city announced on the 29th that it will promote the "Gyeyangsan Grand Park Basic Concept Establishment Project" from May this year until the end of next year. The scope will cover 4.4 million square meters around the Gyeyangsan area.


Through this project, the city plans to analyze the current status and surrounding conditions of the Gyeyangsan area, while exploring development directions to activate conservation and utilization around Gyeyangsan and establish a northern regional hub park.


Additionally, the plan includes setting a direction for building a creative green network by considering connectivity with surrounding development plans such as the Northern Regional Comprehensive Development Plan and Gyeyang Technovalley, as well as the Ara Waterway adjacent to the northern slope of Gyeyangsan.


The city also intends to establish a systematic utilization plan linking existing forests and major facilities of Gyeyangsan, including Gyeyang Park, Imhak Park, Incheon Dullegil Trail, and the History and Culture Museum, so that citizens can enjoy a more diverse leisure and recreational life.


Located at the center of the Hannam Jeongmaek S-shaped green axis, Gyeyangsan is evaluated as having a relatively well-preserved forest ecosystem.


An official from Incheon City stated, "Through this project, we will actively prepare for future changes such as development plans around Gyeyangsan and climate change, and do our best to set basic directions so that the conservation and utilization of Gyeyangsan’s forest ecosystem can continue harmoniously."
