The Homibando Landscape Agricultural Complex has been developed since 2018, offering a variety of attractions each year, including canola flowers, colored barley, buckwheat flowers, and sunflowers across more than 330,000 square meters (about 100,000 pyeong). This year, it is being cultivated on an even larger scale of approximately 50 hectares (about 150,000 pyeong).

The large-scale buckwheat flower field is located right next to the Sunrise Plaza, offering a unique experience where visitors can enjoy the pure white buckwheat flowers alongside the East Sea coast.

The buckwheat at the Homigot Landscape Agricultural Complex was sown in May and has been in full bloom since June, attracting many tourists. In addition to buckwheat, sunflowers are also being cultivated, promising an even richer visual experience.

Pohang City plans not only to provide attractions for urban residents by cultivating unique landscape crops, but also to discover new growth engines for Pohang agriculture using these crops, thereby revitalizing the local tourism industry and increasing farmers' incomes.

Jung Kyungwon, director of the Agricultural Technology Center, said, "Following the successful blooming of canola flowers, buckwheat flowers are also attracting many tourists," and added, "We will continue to work on creating various attractions and revitalizing the local economy."
