경기장 주변의 관람객 출입구와 바닥포장 패턴의 방사형 설계 및 조경시설물의 열주배치를 통해 원형경기장에서 강렬한 빛이 발산되는 모습을 형상화함으로써 빛고을 광주의 이미지를 표현 하고 있다. 경기장의 지붕과 스탠드를 지지하는 대형기둥을 Y자 형태로 설계하여 지붕과 기둥의 전체적인 모습이 광주의 전통민속놀이인 고싸움놀이에 사용되는 고의 머리모습을 나타내도록 하고 동서 양측지붕이 마주하고 있는 모습은 고싸움 놀이중에 상호 충돌하려는 고의 모습을 상징화하고 있다.

Jeonpyeongje is a reservoir facility located in Maewol-dong, Seo-gu, Gwangju Gwangyeoksi. The name Jeonpyeongje (前坪堤) appears in the yuhyeobi (a monument to inform or commemorate the traces of sages for future generations) of Hoijae Park Gwangok (1526~1593). It is known that Hoijae created Jeonpyeongje by diverting water from the south side of Gaesan for farming when he was 43 years old. Built in 1943 to supply agricultural water to Maewol-dong and Byeokjin-dong farmlands and to prevent disasters, the neglected reservoir near the city center was developed into a resting area through a national land park pilot project from 1999 to 2002.
It is a beautiful park located within the Sangmu new city apartment complex in Chipyeong-dong, Seo-gu. The park is equipped with various sports facilities, a lake with scenic water features, an open plaza, a sculpture park, and other landscaping and convenience facilities. The sculpture park extends around the lakeside within Sangmu Citizen Park. Each artwork has landscape lighting installed, allowing visitors to enjoy the fantastic and beautiful works at night. Everyone can touch and interact with the sculptures, providing both 'visual pleasure' and 'experiential enjoyment.' There are also soccer and tennis courts, making it a great park for Gwangju citizens to enjoy leisure activities.
