Jungang Park's address is 218-20, Yeongju-dong, Junggu and boasts a mountain with an area of 273,941 ㎡. The construction of the park was carried out until 1982 since the Daecheong mountain peak, located 197 m above sea level, was designated a site for a public park on September 2, 1970. Because of its location it was also called Daecheong Park.

During the dismal period of the Korean War from 1950 to 1953, the mountain site provided makeshift shelters to a large number of refugees streaming into Busan from all corners of the war torn country.

In 1982, the government officially announced that the entire site would be developed into a public park. By July 7, 1983, the completion of the construction work was announced, and the park was inaugurated under the new name "Jungang Park" in 1986.

There is a great memorial tower soaring 70 m high at the northern edge of the park, making it visible from every corner of the metropolis. This is the "Chunghon Tower," dedicated to the loyal national policemen and military personnel of Busan. They assisted in the cause of our fatherland since its foundation in 1945. In the main hall of the tower there are nine columns. Each column has a space shaped in a half circle to serve as a mortuary at its bottom. Each mortuary is arranged with a number of memorial tablets, bearing the names of the dead.
