Hampyeong County, South Jeolla Province, announced on April 26 that the Natural Ecology Center is gaining popularity among visitors thanks to various displays and presentations utilizing plants.

The Natural Ecology Center within the festival grounds has been designed as a space where visitors can directly experience the importance of nature and ecology. Inside the exhibition hall, Phalaenopsis orchids, flowers that resemble butterflies, are planted to create an elegant atmosphere and convey the beauty of nature.

The "Nest Shelter," crafted using kudzu vines, highlights the habitats of wild birds that are increasingly disappearing due to urbanization. This area represents a stable nesting space for birds, raising awareness about the importance of conserving ecosystems, and serves as a photo zone where visitors can take pictures.

The Cabbage White Butterfly Pavilion offers a unique experience for children and family visitors by allowing them to observe live butterflies up close.

A small waterfall and aquatic zone inside the Natural Ecology Center are home to turtles, giving visitors the chance to experience various ecological environments at close range and capturing their attention.

An official from Hampyeong County stated, "The Natural Ecology Center is designed as a space where visitors can experience the value of nature and ecology," adding, "We hope visitors will appreciate the importance of ecosystems and have a meaningful time through the diverse exhibitions."

Meanwhile, this festival, which continues until May 5, is themed "Dreaming Butterflies, A Journey Begins," with the subtitle "The First Picnic with Ppombi and Hwangbaki." The event features a variety of landscapes and content that capture the excitement of spring and the vibrancy of nature.
