The Busan Nakdong River Project Management Office and Busan Transportation Corporation will jointly operate an eco-train on metro line 1 under the theme, ‘bird sanctuary of the Nakdonggang Estuary’ from November 26, 2020 to February 28, 2021.
To boost ecotourism of the bird sanctuary at the Nakdonggang Estuary, the eco-wrapped train will operate six times daily. One train running on metro line 1 will be decorated with images and photos of winter migrant birds, such as the whooper swan, mallard duck and bean goose, as well as a variety of animals and plants of the estuarine wetlands, such as prickly waterlily, rugosa rose and more.
The photo zone in the train features a soaring bird greeting the hope of spring to come at the Nakdonggang Estuary. It also symbolizes a willingness to overcome COVID-19.
Hadan metro station has also been decorated with images of the bird sanctuary at the Nakdonggang Estuary.
An Instagram event to celebrate the operation of the eco-train is taking place in December.
