Naju Location / Area

The size of Naju is 603.88㎢. One of the 4 major rivers of Korea, Yeonsan river crosses the center of the city running north and south.
As Naju plain is located near Yeongsan river area, it's very easy to irrigate the fields. Although some mountainous area is bumpy and steep in southeast and northwest, Nampyeong·Geumcheon·Dasi plains retain very rich and fertile soil and are abundant in production. The region is also a symbol of Honam Breadbasket. Mt. Geumsung(451m) stands at the center of the city commanding the beautiful scenary of the Naju plain.
Located at 26.7km southwest of Kwangju, it is the transport center being a gateway of 10 cities and goons such as Hampyeong, Muan, Mokpo, Yeongam, Ganjin and Haenam. Naju is also a birthplace of the great names of history. It is also a epicenter of Gwangju Student Independence Movement.
