Gwanak-gu's 'Nakseongdae Station 4-gil Mural Street' Decorated for Spring with Butterflies and Flowers
Aged 'Nakseongdae Station 4-gil Mural Street' Reborn... Retaining Wall and Fence Repaired, Renovated with Beautiful Murals Depicting Four Seasons
Gwanak-gu (District Mayor Park Jun-hee)'s 'Nakseongdae Station 4-gil Mural Street' has been reborn as a beautiful street capturing the four seasons.
In 2014, the district transformed 'Nakseongdae Station 4-gil,' a roughly 50-meter-long alley near Nakseongdae Park, into a mural street full of fun and stories as part of the 'Gang Gam-chan 10-ri Road Tour' project.
Murals were painted on old walls and retaining walls, and photo zones were installed to continuously attract residents.
After about 10 years, the district recently judged that the aging 'Nakseongdae Station 4-gil Mural Street' needed a new change, so it removed the old sculptures that had been installed and carried out maintenance work such as removing foreign substances from the walls.
In particular, new beautiful murals themed around the natural scenery of the four seasons were painted, providing nearby residents with a fresh visual experience and rebirthing the alley into a place where residents want to walk even more.
The district hopes that the renovation of 'Nakseongdae Station 4-gil Mural Street' will bring even a little different joy to the residents.
Meanwhile, Gwanak-gu has the 'Gang Gam-chan 10-ri Road.' The 'Gang Gam-chan 10-ri Road' is composed of five tour courses connecting famous spots in Gwanak-gu, such as the birthplace of the national hero and Goryeo general Gang Gam-chan in the Nakseongdae area, Seoul National University, and Sharosugil.
After finishing the tour, visitors can stop by the nearby 'Sharosugil' to enjoy delicious food, making it a great place for a light walk with family, friends, or lovers.
For groups of five or more, tours with village tourism guides are available. Residents wishing to participate can contact the Gwanak-gu Culture, Tourism, and Sports Division.
