Bitgoeul-daero

The Bitgoeul-daero (Korean: 빛고을대로) is an urban expressway in Gwangju, Korea.

The highway connects from Yuchon-dong, Seo-gu, Gwangju to Dongnim-dong, Buk-gu: about 4 km(2.5 miles.)

It opened on December 29, 2004, and the name was Sendai-ro Road(Korean: 센다이로, Japanese: 仙台路), to celebrate forming a sister city between Gwangju, Korea and Sendai, Japan.

So Gwangju changed a road name: Bitgoeul (literally "village of light") in April, 2005.

Now Sendai-ro Road is located in near Guus Hiddink Stadium, about 1.8 km(1.1 miles).
