Uljin-gun "Dramatic Discounts on Tourist Facilities"... Package Discounts and 20% Local Currency Refund
Starting January Next Year, Designated as Uljin Visit Year... Ordinance Amendment to Establish Basis by Year-End
[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Park Dong-wook] Uljin-gun, Gyeongbuk, announced on the 5th that starting from January next year, it will implement a tourism facility package discount and refund project using the Uljin Love Gift Certificate.
Through this project, in celebration of the 2021 Year of Visiting Uljin, Uljin-gun expects to not only revitalize tourist attractions but also help the local economy by refunding part of the facility usage fee to users of the card-type local currency who experience the tourist sites.
The main details are that when residents or tourists purchase and use 1 to 3 tourism facilities as a package, they will receive a 20% discount on the usage fee (25% discount when purchasing 4 or more), and an additional 20% refund of the payment amount will be credited to the Uljin Love Card.
In particular, the refunded amount can only be used within Uljin-gun to support local small and medium-sized businesses. The facilities eligible for discounts and refunds include four county-operated facilities (Seongryugul Cave, Safety Experience Center, Insect Travel Center, Science Experience Center) and three privately consigned facilities (Wangpicheon Cable Car, Jukbyeon Coastal Sky Rail, Uljin Aquarium).
To ensure smooth project implementation, Uljin-gun plans to focus on revising ordinances to provide a basis for discounts and refunds, establishing an integrated ticketing program, and promoting the project by December.
