Yeongdeungpo-gu (District Mayor Choi Ho-kwon) announced that it will hold the ‘Merry Mullae Christmas Village’ winter festival at Mullae-dong Flower Garden from December 21 to 22 to celebrate Christmas.

The starting point of the ‘Merry Mullae Christmas Village’ is the ‘Mullae-dong Flower Garden.’ The ‘Mullae-dong Flower Garden’ is a space that has returned to the residents after 23 years and is a symbolic place marking the beginning of the ‘Garden City Yeongdeungpo.’

The district plans to hold the first official event at the ‘Mullae-dong Flower Garden’ and offer residents an unforgettable special Christmas.

As a festival created together by residents, artists, and small business owners, various art pieces and programs, including Christmas trees reflecting the sentiment of Mullae-dong, will be displayed throughout the Mullae-dong Flower Garden.

The highlight of the festival is the ‘Tree Lighting Ceremony,’ which starts with a countdown at 5:30 PM on the 21st. This will be followed by a congratulatory performance by the district’s boys and girls choir to raise the festival’s excitement.

Other attractions include ▲ the ‘Rudolph Train’ running through the Flower Garden with Santa ▲ the ‘Secret Forest’ and ‘YDP Tree’ created by artist Lee Han-ju and small business owners ▲ the ‘Christmas Photo Zone’ to take pictures with Santa ▲ Mullae workshop experiences ▲ the ‘Snowball Shop’ where visitors can buy or make Christmas gifts ▲ and the ‘Morakmorak Snack Bar’ offering winter snacks.

There are also special events. Visitors who receive a passport at the information desk and complete the stamp mission can enjoy a warm cup of tea. Additionally, a warm resting area with a heated tent and stove is prepared so that residents can enjoy the festival warmly even in the cold wave.

Mullae-dong Flower Garden

The district expects this winter festival to set a new standard for local festivals that embrace culture and gardens. By turning the garden, which was usually a walking space in daily life, into a festival venue during Christmas, Mullae-dong?once comforted by the sound of metalworking?will become a center of festival, culture, and leisure with carols playing.

Choi Ho-kwon, Mayor of Yeongdeungpo-gu, said, “We will do our best to ensure that this first winter festival, linking culture, arts, gardens, and commercial districts, concludes successfully as a sustainable festival that both residents and visitors can enjoy and that revitalizes the local economy.” He added, “Going forward, along with the Yeouido Spring Flower Festival, Anyangcheon Summer Festival ‘Daepiseo,’ and the Autumn Seonyudo Garden Festival, we will help Yeongdeungpo grow into a city where culture flows throughout all four seasons.”
