Nanjido (Nan(lily) Ji(mushroom) Do(island)) was an island on a branch of the Han River of Seoul, Korea. In the end of 1970s, a dyke was constructed around the edge of Nanjido, and it became Seoul's official dump site. After 1978, Nanjido transformed as a huge mountain of garbage for 15 years, one that would contain a mountain of refuse 98m high and occupying 2,715,900 square meters of land. Nanjido's accumulation of garbage grew quickly, increasing by 3,000 truck loads of waste per day and eventually creating a pyramid thirty-four times larger than The Great Pyramid of Giza in Egypt. Currently, Korea has the biggest rate of per capita garbage production in the world(2.3 kg/person).
