[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] The mayor of Geochang-gun, Gyeongnam, announced on the 6th that he visited Gamaksan Anti-Aging Wellness Experience Center (hereinafter referred to as the Experience Center) to inspect the growth status of plants and tourist safety facilities.


This on-site inspection was conducted to resolve inconveniences for visitors and ensure safe viewing at the Gamaksan Experience Center, which has recently seen an increase in visitors.


Currently, the Experience Center, where autumn flowers such as aster and gujeolcho are in full bloom, is gaining popularity as a new travel tourist attraction, with more than 10,000 tourists visiting during the Chuseok holiday due to the effect of voluntary SNS viral marketing.


The county plans to supplement the on-site inspection items such as rest areas, photo zones, and car camping facilities for visiting tourists to alleviate inconveniences for visitors.


Gu In-mo, mayor of Geochang-gun, urged, “I have instructed the early installation of temporary restrooms and the expansion and paving of access roads to ensure that tourists visiting the Experience Center do not experience any inconvenience, and I hope that Gamaksan will become a tourist attraction that leads new travel trends.”



Meanwhile, Geochang-gun plans to promote the development of anti-aging products using herbs from the summit of Gamaksan and anti-aging health promotion policies experienced by local residents in cooperation with Gyeongnam Provincial Geochang College.
