On February 9, Gyeongju City announced it will begin full-scale implementation of the "Mugunghwa Hill Development Project" in the Bitnuri Jeongwon area of Hwangseong Park.

The aim is to develop a signature local attraction where citizens can easily encounter the Mugunghwa, the national flower, close to their daily living areas.

The city plans to invest a total project cost of 400 million won to plant 5,198 Mugunghwa trees within Bitnuri Jeongwon and to create walking trails that citizens can use.

Joo Nak-young, Mayor of Gyeongju, said, "The Mugunghwa Hill Development Project is highly meaningful in that it will allow citizens to encounter the national flower, Mugunghwa, close to their daily lives," adding, "We will ensure systematic development so that it can become a new landmark of Hwangseong Park."
