What is the Garden of Gratitude in Gwanghwamun Square?
The newly established landmark, the 'Garden of Gratitude' in Gwanghwamun Square,
has welcomed over 500,000 visitors.
This space was created to convey messages of gratitude and peace to the veterans of the Korean War and the participating countries.
It symbolizes the friendship between the two nations and expresses gratitude through media content, telling the story of South Korea's journey from a recipient of aid to a donor nation.
The milestone of 500,000 visitors signifies that the Garden of Gratitude is not just a viewing facility, but a place to experience historical significance and foster international solidarity and exchange.
What does the stone donated by the Swedish Embassy signify?
In August, the Swedish Embassy donated Swedish sienna stone to the Garden of Gratitude, enhancing the friendship between the two countries.
This is the first instance of a participating country donating stone for the Garden.
During the Korean War, Sweden provided medical support by dispatching a field hospital.
The unique sienna stone features a black base with green hues and silver, purple, and golden crystals.
