670 000 of Seoul's total population of 10 million live in Songpa-Gu, with a land area of 34km square.
The Karak Dong Agricultural and marine Wholesale Market in Songpa-Gu is the largest distribution centre for fresh produce in Korea and Asia.
Every second year the Hansung-Baekje Festival celebrates the time Songpa was the capital of the great Baekje dynasty.
Songpa-Gu is home to the Olympic Park, with seven sports stadiums and the Gate of World Peace, as well as the Seoul Sports Complex, the main stadium of the '86 Asian & '88 Olympics games. The arenas, housing and civic improvements built for these events remain a valuable asset to the city.
