Wolhwa Park, Gangneung |
This is the second big transformation of this piece of land. It was originally where the railway line heading south out of Gangneung ran, and it was raised on earth and bridges about three metres above the surrounding streets. The track was removed when the new bullet train line was built for the Olympics in another location. The city took the long strip of land running through the middle of the city and built a park and indoor market on it. The market didn't do so well, so last year they tore down the buildings (which were just pre-fab) and put down these strips of vegetation and lights. I suspect and hope that those gardens are just temporary and the city will put in something looks more permanent and attractive.
