  • A Pleasant Welcome of Spring 
Let's greet Yeongdo's beautiful spring!

As the saying goes "Winter is not eternal, and spring does not skip its turn.", a warm spring has come to us. Why don't you greet the spring of Yeongdo with your precious people this spring?
Recommended Course 1. Mount Bongraesan Dulle-gil (Ring Trail) - Mount Bongraesan Summit - Yeongdo Jonaegi Sweet Potato History Museum - Cheonghak Distributing Reservoir Observatory

Recommended Course 2. Dongsam Sea-Water Stream - Taejongdae Ocean Flying Theme Park - Coastal Healing Road - Yeongdo  Marino Auto Camping Ground 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mount Bongraesan Dulle-gil (Ring Trail) where you can experience both the forest and sea  
Mount Bongraesan is a very attractive place to soothe the body and mind tired of daily life. There are a total of 16 sections to climb Mount Bongraesan, and the summit is 395m above sea level. When you reach the summit of Mount Bongraesan, you can also see the Yeongdo Halmae (Granny) Rock; the legend says that Halmae (Granny) keeps the residents safe. As you enjoy the various hiking courses of Mount Bongraesan, you can see the magnificent view of Busan at a glance. In particular, the Mount Bongraesan Helicopter Pad Outdoor Garden, located in the middle of the Cherry Blossom Road (Contemplation Road) connecting the Yeongdo Jonaegi Sweet Potato History Museum and the summit deck road, introduces a variety of garden styles such as Korean Gardens, borrowed from Korean traditional wall, where you can just relax and stare at the calm water where the sky and trees blend (a water mirror), a formal garden, etc. 
If you want to feel a little special or like you're on a trip to our city, pay Mount Bongraesan Dulle-gil (Ring Trail) a visit.

Yeongdo Jonaegi Sweet Potato History Museum where you can learn history 
Yeongdo Jonaegi Village is the area where sweet potatoes were first grown in Korea. During the reign of King Yeongjo of the Joseon Dynasty, Joum, an envoy, first cultivated sweet potatoes from Tsushima Island, in Yeongdo, which helped ease the famine of the people. The museum, built to commemorate and inform the historical values and meanings of sweet potatoes, is an ideal place to visit after using the Mount Bongraesan Dulle-gil (Ring Trail). 
The Jonaegi Sweet Potato History Museum, introducing the propagation path and historical chronology of sweet potatoes, and the backgrounds of sweet potatoes with sand-art videos, sweet potato fairy tales, puzzle-playing kiosks, and sketch interactives, is an ideal place for children to experience various activities. Also, visit the cafe located on the second floor and enjoy the special sweet potato menu together. In particular, you can listen to fun and informative commentary from the cultural tourism commentator from Friday to Sunday, from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m., so do make sure to visit.
 
Cheonghak Distributing Reservoir Observatory the charm of the city of darkness
Where can I find the charm of the city? Though you can find the charm of the city in the lively daytime scene, the night scene helps end the pleasant day washing away the tired daily life. It is a place where the Cheonghak Distributing Reservoir space was converted into an observatory and is a popular photo zone, beautiful both day and night. This is an attractive place because you can look at the Busan Port Bridge, with the night scene of Busan in the background and every sort and kind of lighting shining on the bridge. If you visit Cheonghak Distributing Reservoir Observatory at night, you can enjoy the atmosphere of spring night as you can see the panoramic view of Busan Port with the sea flooded with lights. 

Dongsam Sea-Water Stream, a hidden cherry blossom spot that you'll regret if you don't visit
It is March when all winter buds sprout and flowers bloom. Starting with the apricot blossom of spring, cherry blossoms will also burst into blooms this week. The Dongsam Sea-Water Stream is another place to enjoy cherry blossoms, a hidden attraction, that you will regret if you don't visit now. Dongsam Sea-Water Stream is an ecological sea-water river surrounding the Dongsam Innovation District, U-shaped 1.6km section, and has established itself as an eco-friendly healing space in the city center. You can enjoy a leisurely walk and take pictures. 

Taejongdae Ocean Flying Theme Park, a Thrilling Experience Trip
Taejongdae Ocean Flying Theme Park, which opened in December of last year, offers thrilling experiences and cultural content that break away from existing viewing-type tourism. The 653m zip-line experience, which runs from Mount Jungrisan Coastal Healing Road to Gamji Beach to the former Jayu-Land parking lot, is thrilling, both viewing and experiencing firsthand offering a panoramic view of Gamji beach from below your feet to over your head. The time travel, which is based on digital media technology, restoring the natural environment with the motif of Yeongdo which is connected by four bridges and implemented on the LED screen, can be seen in the experiential media art MOEI. The experience at Taejongdae Ocean Flying Theme Park, embracing the sound of fresh waves and splendid natural scenery, will give tourists warm memories of spring.

Coastal Healing Road, the Best Driving Course 
Sunset is the best healing point for people who are tired of their daily lives. Sunset's beautiful appearance and ships anchored in the vast South Sea and anchorage basins approach like an art and the magnificent sight, coloring the sea red and disappearing, can be felt here. 
Coastal Healing Road, a coastal tourist road that opened on November 4 last year and connects a 2.4-kilometer section from Gamji Beach to the entrance to Jungri, emerges as a driving course where you can enjoy the beautiful coast and feel the scenery of Yeongdo. You can take a walk, and also enjoy the golden sunset in the comfort of a sunset gourmet restaurant.

Yeongdo Marino Auto Camping Ground, where city and nature coexist 
Located in the lower part of the Busan Port Bridge, Yeongdo Marino Auto Camping Ground is one of Yeongdo's main attractions. You can fully enjoy Yeongdo's charm at an unusual camping ground (15 caravan lots, 40 auto lots, 12 general lots); it is where the city and nature coexist and where you can heal while looking at the sea; it offers a walking trail that you can walk around the camping ground, along the sea shore; and Busan Port Bridge offers spectacular scenery at night. Users are selected through an online pre-booking system (draw); the application period for residents and the general public is different, so it is necessary to check the relevant website.  It is a perfect place to enjoy romantic and leisurely times with your beloved family members, lovers, and friends on a warm spring day while leaving your busy daily schedule behind for a while.

  • We will create a traffic environment that puts children first!
Overall improvements of the Children's Safety Zone in the District
A joint countermeasure meeting with six related organizations was held, and parental requests were actively reflected.
24m vehicle protection fence and two speed humps were installed first
Illegal-parking-CCTV-installation scheduled to be completed at the end of July

On April 28th, an unfortunate accident occurred in a Children's Safety Zone in the District. Above all, Yeongdo District is devising measures to fundamentally solve the problem by accurately identifying the cause of the accident so that such an accident does not happen again.
First of all, on May 3, the 「Joint Countermeasures Meeting with Relevant Agencies Related to School Commute Road Accidents」 was held. The meeting, which was presided over by the Yeongdo Mayor of Gu, was attended by six related organizations including Gu Hall, police, schools, Western Office of Education, Road Traffic Authority, and Yeongdo-Gu Mental Health Welfare Center to devise countermeasures to prevent the recurrence of safety accidents in the Children's Safety Zone. 
At this meeting, we discussed various measures that actively reflected parental demands such as ▲The request for manpower for safe school commuting roads ▲Installation of speed humps ▲Pedestrian crossing stop line and traffic lights locations alignment ▲Safety fence repair ▲Installation of traffic light acoustic detection facility ▲Request to relocate the Fishing-Net factory in the accident-prone area ▲Installation of parking violation CCTV ▲Operation-time restriction of large trucks in school zones ▲One-way road designation on the road leading to Ilshin Marina, etc.
Accordingly, Yeongdo District has devised three measures to create safe commuting routes ▲Maintenance of traffic safety facilities ▲Maintenance of roadside pileups on the road to school ▲Psychological recovery, and counseling support. 

◆Maintenance of traffic safety facilities
First, the tubular road markers installation (100m section) was completed on the past 4th day of this month. After consultations with residents, we plan to install them in the remaining sections. In addition to special crackdowns on illegal parking during school hours, banners will be posted to promote the prohibition and crackdown on illegal parking in the 57 Children's Safety Zones in the district (5 zones near Cheongdong Elementary Schools, 52 zones near 13 Elementary Schools). By doing so, it is our policy to root out  illegal parking & stop, and induce law-abiding driving through awareness raising.
On the 17th, the installation of a 24m-long vehicle protection fence was completed, with a budget of 24 million won, on the pedestrian path in the Children's Safety Zone in front of Cheongdong Elementary School. The fence is capable of withstanding a collision with a 14-ton truck at 80 km/h; it is rated at 5 out of 1~9 rating system; safety strength is prescribed by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport through actual crash tests. Yeongdo District plans to sequentially repair safety fences in Children's Safety Zones near 14 elementary schools, starting with the fence section of Cheongdong Elementary School. Then, on the 19th, the installation of two speed humps was completed. In the section between Jabi Kindergarten and Cheonghak Heights Villa. We plan to complete the installation of protective fences for vehicles by the end of June, and the CCTVs for illegal parking enforcement will also be installed and completed by the end of July.
By the end of September, we plan to complete the installation of raised pedestrian crosswalks, runway-type pedestrian crosswalks, audio signals, and speed displays.   

◆Maintenance of roadside pileups on the road to school 
Since May 3, we are making efforts on enhancing the safety measures for roadside pileups on the road to school and establishing a prompt cooperation system. We are making efforts to ensure safety on commuting routes: first, the roadside pileups maintenance and sidewalk maintenance (12 cases) works are being carried out and intensive policing teams are being implemented to control the roadside pileups on the road to school. 
In addition, based on the additional demand surveyed, according to the results of the Western Office of Education's demand for additional personnel on school commute routes in the district, it is additionally placed in Cheongdong Elementary School first; we are also discussing gradually expanding deployment. 

◆Psychological recovery and counseling support
It also focuses on wound healing for psychological recovery support.
The Western Office of Education is providing customized support according to the degree of trauma based on the psychological test conducted on the students of Cheongdong Elementary School on the past May 2. The Yeongdo-Gu Mental Health Welfare Center decided to support a psychological counseling program for teachers‧parents together with the Wee Center of the Western Office of Education.

Meanwhile, The ‘Children’s Safety Zone’ is the main school roads within a 300m radius from the main entrances of elementary schools and kindergartens, and parking·stopping of vehicles is absolutely prohibited.
Fine for illegal parking in the Children's Safety Zone is subject to a fine of 120,000 won for passenger cars and 130,000 won for vans,  from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm, which is three times that of the general area.
