[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Choi Soon-kyung] Choi Young-ho, Deputy Governor of Geochang-gun, Gyeongnam, visited the Anti-Aging Healing Land on the 12th to inspect the progress and facilities of one forest recreation hall (10 rooms) and eight forest houses within the natural recreation forest.

The natural recreation forest construction project, which began in 2018, has a total budget of 5.3 billion KRW and has completed foundational work such as civil engineering and landscaping, as well as lodging facilities construction. The project is now accelerating efforts to maintain various facilities with the goal of completion this month.

Deputy Governor Choi Young-ho stated, “Once the lodging facilities within the natural recreation forest are completed, it is expected to lead healing, relaxation, and extended-stay tourism, becoming the county’s premier recreational forest tourism destination.” He added, “Please ensure thorough efforts in project promotion to contribute to revitalizing the local economy.”

The Anti-Aging Healing Land had been preparing to open in July with a reservation system, but due to the rapid spread of the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19), it was decided to extend the closure as a preventive measure. The official opening is planned for the second half of the year.

Currently, entry to the Anti-Aging Healing Land facilities is restricted, but forest interpretation and forest healing programs are actively operating for participants.
