Gwangjin-gu (District Mayor Kim Kyung-ho) has created a 'Cherry Blossom and Hydrangea Themed Path' filled with thousands of flowers along the embankment walkway of Jungnangcheon Stream.

The location is at 261-2, Junggok 3-dong, along the road section extending from Jangpyeonggyo Bridge toward Gunja Bridge. Approximately 210 meters long, cherry trees and hydrangeas were planted here to add a special touch to the natural scenery of the riverside path.

A total of 5,458 hydrangea plants were planted. Among the hydrangeas, varieties with vibrant petals and winter hardiness were selected so visitors can enjoy their beauty throughout all four seasons. Eighteen types of flowers, including Mok hydrangea and Star hydrangea, bloom in succession, displaying a neat and pure appearance.

Although they typically bloom from May to September, hydrangeas have strong growth and thrive well even in semi-shaded environments, making them easy to appreciate. Visitors can also enjoy learning the names and characteristics of the flowers through the informational signs placed in front of the hydrangeas.

Additionally, 27 cherry trees were planted for spring visitors. From March to April, visitors can enjoy the scenery of cherry blossoms in full bloom fluttering in the spring breeze and falling over the hydrangeas.

Kim Kyung-ho, Mayor of Gwangjin-gu, said, “By creating the Cherry Blossom and Hydrangea Themed Path, we aim to present a different view of Jungnangcheon in each season,” adding, “I hope this place will become an even more pleasant and beloved resting space for walking.”
