[Gwangju] Geumnam-ro Street (금남로)

💡 Overview

Geumnam-ro Street used to be in the government office quarters, and is now the center of the city’s finacial sphere, with many banks, insurance companies and public offices lining the street. During the May 18 Movement, the citizens gathered at Geumnam-ro Steet and marched together to express their sadness and give support for the sublimation of the nation. In modern times, the street serves as a meeting space for citizens, with an underground shopping mall and a plaza around a fountain, where events and performances freely take place.
