The Jisepojinseong Flower Garden in Irun-myeon, Geoje-si is drawing crowds as lavender, chrysanthemums, and other seasonal blooms reach full bloom across the historic site.

Located within the grounds of Jisepojinseong, a cultural asset dating back to 1441 during the reign of King Sejong, the garden offers a unique blend of natural beauty and historical significance.

Once an underused area, the site has been revitalized by Geoje City, which carefully enhanced the landscape with vibrant flowers while preserving the integrity of the heritage site.

This transformation has made it a popular spot for both citizens and tourists seeking scenic views and cultural enrichment.

Despite development restrictions due to its heritage status, the city aims to continue maintaining the garden as a space where visitors can enjoy both history and nature.

The site stands as an example of how cultural preservation and environmental beautification can coexist.
