Damyang Metasequoia Road

Korean name담양 메타세쿼이아길

Machine-translated from Korean. Show original

In addition to the bamboo forest, metasequoia trees have been planted as street trees, creating an exotic and fantastical landscape. Seen from afar, they look like fairies sitting gathered in a row, or like a little train in a toy country. When viewed from the middle of the path, they look exactly like British royal guards standing in review. Standing in orderly review, they wave to outsiders. As you walk along this path, you become enchanted by the exotic scenery and, before you know it, find yourself drawn into the byways of Namdo. The Metasequoia Road was created in 1972 by Damyang County (19th county governor Kim Gi-hoe), who planted 1,300 five-year-old trees along the 5 km section of National Route 24 from the county office to the Wonyul three-way intersection in Geumseong-myeon.
