The county plans to create a 1,560㎡ sharing forest entirely funded by the national government around the Jangseong Public Senior Specialized Nursing Hospital. The fund comes from lottery proceeds under the ‘Lottery and Lottery Fund Act.’


The project is expected to be completed next year, providing residents and visitors using the hospital with a place for rest and recovery.



County Governor Kim Han-jong said, “I hope the sharing forest established at Jangseong Public Senior Specialized Nursing Hospital will become a healing space in everyday life,” and added, “We will continue to make efforts to expand forest welfare in the region.”
