Dongdaemun-gu (District Mayor Lee Pil-hyung) has transformed the Sakyegjeongwon garden along the Jungnangcheon riverside into a bright flower field filled with yellow cosmos.


Since January this year, Dongdaemun-gu has been promoting the 'City of Flowers' project. Following tulips in spring and zinnias in summer, a 4,500㎡ yellow cosmos garden was created under Jangpyeonggyo Bridge on Jungnangcheon, making it a local attraction.


In July, the district sowed cosmos seeds along a 500m stretch of the Jungnangcheon walking trail. As of mid-September, the yellow cosmos are in full bloom and are expected to continue blooming until the first frost (mid-October).


In November this year, the district plans to plant tulip bulbs so that residents can enjoy a bright tulip garden in harmony with spring starting April next year.



On the afternoon of the 18th, Lee Pil-hyung, Mayor of Dongdaemun-gu, who visited the Jungnangcheon cosmos garden, said, “Seeing the beautifully blooming yellow cosmos makes me truly feel that autumn has arrived,” and added, “We will continue to cultivate vibrant seasonal flower gardens so that residents visiting Jungnangcheon can enjoy pleasant walks surrounded by flowers.”
