Story of Flower Well Park within Deogyang-gu Office

Making Hwajeong, a Flower well park, the center of Deogyang-gy, Goyang

Recently a park was made after the name of the village.

Goyang’s representative city development village is Hwajeong-dong, which means flower pond village in Korean.

Goyang city replicated the pond that existed before large-size apartment complexes were constructed according to people’s will, into flower well park at the entrance of Deogyang-gu Office.

With length of 40m of water and flower, cool water flows and people can rest in the chairs and other structures.

At the front of the pond there is an explanation on the origin of the flower well park and how the park came to be.

Before urbanization began, Hwajeong had two famous well. There was Hwasu Village Well near the Hwasu High School area and Chan Well near the Hwajeong Station area. The stories of relationship of the royal tombs of Seosamneung and Hwajeong Well and the process of digging the well is written.

Under the stone chair there is a depiction of the village before the urbanization. The park is significant for being the first park to have a famous landmark as its motif.

Seeing residents relax here bare feet in the hot summer makes one thing of the old Hwajeong.
