Fresh Artistic Experience at Jangi-Gol

Jangi-gol, the place with the harmony of culture, arts and the nature, is located in the provincial area with the natural advantage. We can see wild flowers in full bloom on the way to Jangi-gol. At the end of the road, there is a playground of a closed school. Statues of a reading girl, a boy with a torch and King Sejong are placed on the playground, and the old goal post with weeds possesses a charm of its own. A large plane tree looking like Baobab tree creates the artistic atmosphere.
