The 'Hakdongri Community Garden,' located in Hakdongri, Damyang-eup, Damyang County, South Jeolla Province, is adding to the early summer atmosphere with marigolds and hydrangeas in bloom.

This community garden, which has been cultivated jointly by local residents and the municipal government, is a village garden situated near Metasequoia Road, a renowned walking destination representing Damyang. Through diverse themed plantings each season, the garden serves as an open space that offers relaxation and enjoyment to both local residents and visitors.

This summer, the garden has been newly adorned with marigolds in shades of orange and yellow, creating a warm and vibrant summer setting. The marigolds, blooming in clusters, are notable for their long flowering period, lasting from early summer through autumn. Their bright, sunlit hues blend harmoniously with Damyang's lush natural surroundings, and the flower-lined paths shining under the midday sun are expected to become a popular spot for memorable photos.

In addition, hydrangeas in soft pastel tones are ready to display their abundant beauty in one corner of the garden. These hydrangeas will be in bloom from early summer through the height of summer. Especially on rainy days, the hydrangeas glistening with water droplets create an even more picturesque scene.

Another charm of the Hakdongri Community Garden is its natural connection to Damyang's major tourist attractions. Starting from Metaprovence, an area featuring French-style architecture and shops, the walking course continues along the cool, shaded Metasequoia tree-lined road and leads to the Hakdongri Community Garden, making it an ideal summer walking trail.

Along the route, experiential spaces such as the Honam Climate Change Experience Center and the Frog Ecological Park offer excellent opportunities for families with children, providing a well-designed course that combines learning and leisure.

An official from the county stated, "The Hakdongri Community Garden is a unique healing space in daily life that combines changing floral landscapes and walking trails with each season in Damyang. We hope you will enjoy another side of Damyang's charm this summer in the garden where marigolds and hydrangeas come together."
