Sangmu: parks and everyday culture in new Gwangju

Start at Sangmu Station Exit 4 and connect Sangmu Citizens Park, Energy Park, Sangmu evening district. Allow 2–3 hours, but use this question to edit the day: “Observe how local families use a newer civic district rather than collecting famous sights.” Recheck official opening, reservation and safety notices on the day; If indoor facilities close or weather deteriorates, take one short park loop and move to an indoor meal.
