Gwacheon City Completes Renovation of Knowledge Information Town Neighborhood Park 4 and Opens to Citizens

[Suwon Ilbo=Reporter Yu Je-sung] Gwacheon City announced on the 24th that it has completed the renovation of Neighborhood Park 4 within the Knowledge Information Town with a "Forest and Nature" theme to serve all age groups and has reopened it to citizens as of the 21st.

Neighborhood Park 4 was transferred from the Korea Land & Housing Corporation (LH) at the end of January and was opened early. Since its opening, the city has pursued work to supplement park facilities within a short timeframe to enhance citizen convenience.

This renovation went beyond a simple opening and focused on strengthening the park's function as a space where citizens can actually stay and use.

Within the park, a rest area called "Forest Rest" has been created to allow citizens to stay comfortably. Currently, complementary work such as planting flowering plants and trees is continuing in some sections.

A natural play space called "Nature Imagination Park" has also been established for children. It features a sand play area and a drawing space, designed to allow for free creative activities and play in a natural setting.

Additionally, an outdoor exercise space called "Green Gym" has been created to enable citizens to engage in light exercise and health management in their daily lives.

Through this renovation, the city expects Neighborhood Park 4 to become a residential proximity park where citizens can rest, play, and exercise.

A city official stated, "We believe that a park is a space for citizens to breathe and relax closest to their daily lives," and added, "We have carefully renovated Neighborhood Park 4 in the Knowledge Information Town so that it becomes a space where people want to stay and return to, beyond just being a green space."
