Sandglass Park Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
Walk along the Jeongdongjin Seaside Promenade for about 10 minutes and you will come to the famous Hourglass Park. It has the largest hourglass device in the world, and it only takes a year for the hourglass to run out. The upper part of the hourglass here represents the future time, the flowing sand represents the present, the golden circle represents the sun rising from the sea of Jeongdongjin, and the railroad track directly below the hourglass that is parallel to the horizon symbolizes eternity. This hourglass clock is said to have been designed by the French cleric Liutprang around the 8th century. Jeongdongjin Hourglass Park was built in 1999 by Gangneung City and Samsung Electronics at a cost of 1.28 billion won to commemorate the millennium. The hourglass clock in Hourglass Park is 8.06m in diameter and 3.2m in width. Jeongdongjin, where the hourglass clock is located, starts from the landmark stone of the road in front of Gwanghwamun Gate, Seoul, and is located in the village just east. Therefore, during the summer solstice, the sun rises earlier on the Korean Peninsula than in the east. If you come to Hourglass Park with your lover, you might as well take a commemorative photo together in front of the romantic hourglass. I hope all people who are in love can hold their hands and grow old with them.

Get off at Zhengdongjin Station and walk about 100 meters to the hourglass park. The hourglass park is actually a beach park. There is the world's largest hourglass. It only flips once a year, and the sand leaks exactly one year. Several views of the seaside are still beautiful, and there is a train it is the Zhengdongjin Time Museum.
Jiangling is a very famous place, but the name of this park seems to be a little different from the elegant name of Jiangling. However, the scenery in the hourglass park has brought surprises to every visitor.
It's a park where you can have a lot of fun. I recommend going. I'm a dog and it's good to go for a walk.
The environment is very good! The famous cruise hotel! The night view is very beautiful! Driving with relatives and friends!! Baby likes it very much! It's a bit cold when we go there! When the weather gets warm in August, we can take our bathing suit to swim in the sea! It's a pity to go a little early! But the air quality index is very high!!
The view of the hourglass park is very beautiful, the majority of tourists and friends relax here, have a great time, many birds also regard this as their own "happy nest", here to seek their own life.
