Insect Ecology Hall

The Insect Ecology Center, located in Sutaek-dong, Guri-si, Gyeonggi-do, opened in 2001, is an ecological and cultural space that provides opportunities to observe and experience insects. This place practices water conservation by using effluent water that has been treated to meet water quality standards at the sewage treatment plant as landscaping water, toilet water, cleaning water, and firefighting water, and is practicing energy conservation by using waste heat from household waste for heating. The insect ecology museum consists of exhibition and ecology facilities, breeding facilities, and vinegar plant cultivation facilities. Exhibits include over 36 species of live insects, including live butterflies, rhinoceros beetles, and water frogs, as well as special animals other than insects, such as tarantulas and freshwater fish. Additionally, you can see specimens of over 330 species, including butterfly specimens. The Insect Ecology Museum offers a variety of educational and experiential programs. Representative programs include winter survival of arthropods and biomimetic technology found in nature, and applications can be made through the website.
