Gwanak District in Seoul (District Mayor Park Junhee) announced on October 26 that it had completed the construction of “Nanu Park, Gwanaksan Mountain” on October 22 as part of its initiative to create community-oriented parks, thereby adding a healing space where residents can enjoy nature in their daily lives.

The park development is part of the “Gwanaksan Park 24 Project,” which aims to transform 24 zones of Gwanaksan Neighborhood Park into themed parks, allowing residents to enjoy nature and culture at any time, 24 hours a day.

Nanu Park, Gwanaksan Mountain, covers a total area of 6,472 square meters in the Nanu District of Miseong-dong (Sillim-dong 598-269). The district demolished three obstructive buildings within the park site and cleared dense vegetation to complete a three-tiered, multi-dimensional park.

The first tier features a “themed garden” with seasonal flowers and herbaceous plants, while the second tier offers a “barefoot soil path” where visitors can walk barefoot and experience grounding effects. The third tier includes a spacious lawn plaza with an open view, providing a natural retreat where residents can enjoy leisure and relaxation.

Park Junhee, Mayor of Gwanak District, stated, “I hope that Nanu Park, which will serve as an open space for communication and gathering among residents, becomes a precious public venue that brings energy, happiness, and shared joy to everyday life. With the creation of Nanu Park, we aim to offer relaxation and happiness to our busy residents and take another step closer to realizing a healing and garden city.”
