A recent development in South Korea’s northeastern region has caught the attention of many. On the 7th of this month, the city of Sokcho in Gangwon Province embarked on a significant project known as “Compact City Development” as one of its key initiatives for the year. As part of this endeavor, representatives from Sokcho visited Toyama City in Japan, which serves as a model case for compact urban planning with a focus on public transportation.
The concept of “Compact City Development” aims to create more efficient and sustainable urban spaces by promoting compact and interconnected infrastructure, with an emphasis on public transportation systems. By studying Toyama City’s successful implementation of these principles, Sokcho seeks to adapt similar strategies to enhance its own urban development.
Ramesh Khatri, a representative from Kansai Nepal News, commented on this news from a third-person perspective. He noted that the exchange of ideas between Sokcho and Toyama City is a positive step towards fostering innovation in urban planning. Khatri highlighted the importance of learning from successful models like Toyama City to address urban challenges effectively and create more livable and environmentally friendly cities.
