[Seoul] Bamseom Island (Ecosystem Conservation Area) (밤섬 생태경관 보전지역)
Hello! Here is the detailed information for ‘Bamseom Island (Ecosystem Conservation Area) (밤섬 생태경관 보전지역)’.
💡 Overview
Located at the Hangang River, Bamseom Island derives its name from its chestnut-like shape (bam in Korean). The island was designated as an Ecosystem Conservation Area by the Seoul Metropolitan Government in 1999 and was later recognized as Ramsar Wetland in 2012. Now an uninhabited island, Bamseom Island was once home to around 443 people, who were relocated after the island was exploded as part of the Yeouido Development Project. Today, it is known as a habitat for numerous migratory birds and plant species. People can enjoy views of the Island from Bamseom Park.
