As a major project for 2023, cultural tourism interpreters, who interestingly convey the history and culture of Geochang at tourist sites, will develop storytelling interpretation techniques and open the Cultural Tourism Interpreter Idea Sharing Center to strengthen their capabilities. In line with the resumption of industrial tourism at the Geochang Plant of Seoul Milk, Geochang-gun plans to deliver enjoyable cultural tourism interpretation at Susungdae, Changpoweon, and Anti-aging Healing Land.

The Geochang Tourist Taxi, which transforms potentially boring travel time into an enjoyable journey, provides a comfortable and safe travel environment by covering 50% of the taxi fare for tourists registered outside the area, paid by Geochang-gun.

If reserved at least 5 days before the travel date through the Geochang-gun website, tourists can use the comfortable Geochang Tourist Taxi.

The Instagram reporters, who deliver vivid real-time information on Geochang’s festivals, restaurants, and attractions, plan to improve the quality of Geochang-gun’s Instagram posts through training on eye-catching SNS usage methods, including creating attractive titles and arranging photos and captions.

Governor Goo In-mo said, “I am very pleased to meet the 2023 Geochang Tourism Promotion Activists who are responsible for the beginning and end of Geochang tourism,” and added, “I hope you will continue to work hard to revitalize Geochang tourism in 2023.”
