Ulju County Breaks Ground on Beomseo Neighborhood Park, Accelerates Expansion of Residential Green Spaces

186,000 Square Meters Around Saemot Reservoir

Full-Scale Development of a Waterfront, Cultural, and Leisure Park

Ulju County has officially begun the development of a large-scale residential park.

On March 19, Ulju County announced the start of its project to expand the region’s green infrastructure by holding a groundbreaking ceremony for the Beomseo Neighborhood Park Development Project. The event was attended by more than 200 people, including County Governor Lee Sungul, local politicians, and residents.

Beomseo Neighborhood Park is a large-scale park being developed on a site of approximately 186,000 square meters around Saemot Reservoir in Gueong-ri, Beomseo-eup, with a total investment of 42.2 billion won. It is one of the key green space projects being promoted by Ulju County.

Although the area has long boasted beautiful natural scenery, its use had been limited due to livestock odors and other issues. However, with the creation of the park, it is expected to be transformed into an eco-friendly recreational space where nature and people can coexist.

The park will feature a waterside walking trail along the reservoir, an adventure playground for children, a lawn plaza, a picnic garden, and other spaces for families. In addition, cultural and leisure facilities such as a book café, a forest library, an observatory, and a waterfront stage will also be provided.

Ulju County has already completed land compensation and administrative procedures, and began construction this month on the eastern reservoir section. The western mountainous section is also scheduled to complete its administrative process within the year, with the overall project set to finish by December next year.

Alongside this, Ulju County is accelerating additional park development projects to expand residential green spaces. The county is building a waterfront green belt connecting Taehwagang National Garden and Seonbawi Park, and is gradually pushing forward with the development of the 'Duhyeon Reservoir Premium Waterside Park' and 'Guyeongdeul Park'.

An official from Ulju County stated, "Starting with Beomseo Neighborhood Park, we will steadily promote various park development projects to expand green infrastructure and improve the quality of life for our residents."

Ulsan Ulju-gun held a groundbreaking ceremony for the "Beomseo Neighborhood Park Development Project" attended by more than 200 people, including Ulju-gun Governor Soongeol Lee, Ulju-gun Council Chairman Gilyoung Choi, city and county council members, leaders of social organizations, and local residents.
