'Enjoying the Autumn Atmosphere' Pohang City Indeoksan Nature Yard, Silver Eulalia Waves Swaying

Jayeon Madang Conducts Ecological Restoration Project for 5 Years... Planting Silver Grass Clusters, Four-Season Roses, and More

Hiking Trails and Barefoot Paths Created, Establishing a Public Space to Enjoy Natural Scenery and Trekking

Induksan Natural Garden in Nam-gu, Pohang City, is reaching its peak as the silver grass colonies ripple like waves alongside the blooming four-season roses welcoming autumn.

At Indeoksan Natural Garden, waves of silver silvergrass sway, allowing visitors to fully enjoy the autumn atmosphere.

Induksan was the only green space serving as a buffer between nearby industrial and residential areas, but after the summit was cut in the 1990s to secure aircraft safety altitude, it was neglected, causing dust and soil erosion during rainfall.

In response, Pohang City has been conducting an ecological restoration project for five years to restore the area as a space for citizens, completing a supplementary construction last year.

Covering a total area of 182,238㎡ (55,000 pyeong), 283,101 plants including wild azaleas were planted for ecological restoration, and natural succession of the damaged silver grass colonies was encouraged to create an eco-friendly specialized space. Additionally, 8,750 four-season rose plants of 21 varieties were planted.

Moreover, Induksan features hiking trails and a 6 km barefoot path, allowing citizens to enjoy trekking comfortably amidst natural scenery. Convenience facilities such as public restrooms, information boards, and rest areas have been installed to enable easy use of the natural garden.

Furthermore, access roads have been maintained and newly opened to make it easier for citizens to visit, with plans for continuous improvements for citizen convenience.

A Pohang City official stated, “We will continue to preserve and propagate the native silver grass colonies and manage the area to create distinctive seasonal landscapes so that Induksan Natural Garden can establish itself as a new landmark of Pohang.”
