Efforts to Promote the World Ceramic Biennale 2009 Korea Reach a Peak
Gyeonggi Province is accelerating its efforts to promote the World Ceramic Biennale 2009 Korea, which will take place on April 25. The Province aims to actively attract domestic and foreign visitors with tourism products that are customized for domestic and foreign visitors.
The programs to attract visitors are operated by the three cities of Icheon, Gwangju, and Yeoju, and feature diverse tour programs customized for Japanese tourists, families of foreign residents in Korea, Korean tourists, and students. The programs were designed to encourage participation in the World Ceramic Biennale 2009 Korea while promoting the excellence of the Province???s cultural resources worldwide.
