Overview

Yangsan Water Purification Park is an eco-friendly public facility in Gyeongsangnam-do that transforms a sewage treatment plant into an accessible green space for the community. Located along the Gangbyeon-ro area near the Yangsan stream, the park integrates industrial water purification infrastructure with landscaped walking trails, grassy lawns, and native vegetation. It serves as a local recreational hub where visitors can observe ecological purification processes while enjoying outdoor leisure activities. The grounds feature open plazas, resting pavilions, and observation points overlooking the surrounding riverside environment. Well-maintained pedestrian paths weave through the park, making it a popular spot for casual strolls and family outings.
