[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Jae-ho] Andong City announced that from the 1st to July 11th, it will hold an event in collaboration with the Korea Tourism Organization to provide 2,000 vouchers worth 5,000 won each, which can be used at traditional markets, free of charge.

This event, conducted as part of the '2021 Month of Visiting Traditional Markets' campaign, will be carried out by distributing the vouchers received from the Tourism Organization to tourism product operators.

The operators will use the vouchers to sell tourism products, and tourists who use these tourism products will receive vouchers that can be used at traditional markets during the event period.

The linked tourism products include ▲Andong City Tour ▲High-quality Experience Programs ▲Stamp Tour ▲Accommodation Experiences (Seonseonghyeon Hanok Experience Center, Imha Lake Camping & Water Leisure Town), among others.

Andong City plans to expand the event vouchers to 3,200 for the second round of the 'Month of Visiting Traditional Markets' campaign scheduled for October. Last year, it also secured and distributed 2,000 vouchers worth 5,000 won from the Tourism Organization, receiving positive feedback from merchant associations.

An Andong City official stated, "We are pleased to expand and operate this project, which supports the tourism industry and small business owners in traditional markets, more effectively than last year," adding, "We will create projects that enable mutual growth by integrating various fields such as tourism and traditional markets beyond the boundaries of work areas."
