Paju City to Launch Renovation of 'Tongilchon Agricultural Products Direct Market' Reflecting Residents' Opinions
42 Million Won Allocated Through Participatory Budgeting
Exterior Painting, Interior Floor Replacement, and Leak Repairs to Be Carried Out
Paju City, Gyeonggi Province, has allocated a budget of 42 million won to launch a renovation project aimed at improving the facilities and environment of the Tongilchon Agricultural Products Direct Market.
The Tongilchon Agricultural Products Direct Market is a facility consisting of a direct market that sells locally produced agricultural goods and tourism items from within the Civilian Control Line, as well as a restaurant where visitors can enjoy food made from local produce. It is one of Paju City's most popular tourist attractions, frequented by both residents and tourists. However, persistent issues such as the aging of the building's exterior walls, damage to the interior floor finishing materials, and water leakage in some sections have highlighted the need for facility improvements.
In response, Paju City has reflected the concerns of residents and visitors who use the direct market by setting up a participatory budget. The planned improvements include painting the exterior walls of the market, replacing decorative floor tiles inside, and repairing areas where water leaks have occurred.
The city expects that this project will comprehensively upgrade the direct market's facilities and provide visitors with a more pleasant and safer environment.
