Dobong-gu Installs Greenhouse on Barefoot Park's Ochre Path... Open Year-Round Since January with Foot Baths, Shoe Racks, Rest Areas, and Acupressure Walkways

Residents' footsteps have not stopped on the Hwangtotgil (Yellow Soil Path) at Balbadak Park in Dobong-gu. This is thanks to the installation of a vinyl greenhouse last January, and dozens of people visit this place daily through word of mouth among residents.

Dobong-gu (Mayor Oh Eon-seok) announced that it installed a vinyl greenhouse on the Hwangtotgil at Balbadak Park last January, which can be used even in cold weather, snow, and rain, and has been open to residents year-round without holidays.

Regarding the background of the vinyl greenhouse installation, a district official stated, “It is to allow residents to walk comfortably on the Hwangtotgil regardless of the season throughout the year.”

The Hwangtotgil at Balbadak Park is located in Banghak 3-dong, Dobong-gu, and is equipped with various convenience facilities such as a foot washing station, shoe rack, rest shelter, and acupressure walkway.

Oh Eon-seok, Mayor of Dobong-gu, said, “For the health of the residents and the happiness of daily life, we will continue to create barefoot walking trails in various parts of the region, including the Hwangtotgil.”
