[Asia Economy Honam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Lee Hyung-kwon] ‘Kkotmacha Village’ in Nagan-myeon, Suncheon City, has been selected as one of the six recommended rural experience and recreation villages for summer vacations by Jeollanam-do.

Located near Nagan Eupseong Fortress, Kkotmacha Village features well-preserved stone wall paths and traditional houses, and operates various experience programs that are difficult to encounter in urban areas, such as traditional food making, traditional games, and craft experiences.

Additionally, Suncheon City operates ‘Gosan Village’ in Seungju-eup, ‘Mideum Farm’ in Seomyeon, and ‘Seongyeongyeol Farmer’s Story’ in Oeseo-myeon as clean establishments that comply with COVID-19 prevention guidelines and practice safety management during the summer vacation season, in cooperation with the Rural Development Administration.

Suncheon City is striving to overcome the rural COVID-19 crisis by developing rural experience villages themed around recreation and healing agriculture in the post-COVID era.

A Suncheon City official stated, “Safe rural tourist destinations are gaining attention amid the social distancing atmosphere.” He added, “We will introduce advanced healing agriculture content and attract small family-unit tourists to lay the foundation for revitalizing rural tourism.”
