[Jeollanam-do] Damyang Metasequoia-lined Road (담양 메타세쿼이아길)

Damyang Metasequoia-lined Road (담양 메타세쿼이아길)

Hello! Here is the detailed information for ‘Damyang Metasequoia-lined Road (담양 메타세쿼이아길)’.

💡 Overview

Damyang Metasequoia-lined Road is one of Korea’s most beautiful paths. Metasequoia trees were planted along the street in the early 1970s by the Ministry of Internal Affairs after National Road 24 was rebuilt. At that time, the saplings were only 3 to 4 years old and their branches stretched sparsely out into the sky; now, the trees have grown so high that they seem to block out the sun. Thanks to these stately trees, in 2002 the Korea Forest Service selected the boulevard as one of the most beautiful roads in Korea. The 8.5-kilometer-long boulevard is one of the most popular driving routes in Korea, especially during summer when the trees’ lush green leaves are at their x_height of beauty.
