About 2,000 tourists consisting of Chinese elementary and middle school students and teachers are visiting Korea until the 6th of this month.

Gyeonggi Province and Gyeonggi Tourism Organization announced on the 1st that, in cooperation with Korea Tourism Organization, Incheon Tourism Organization, Gyeonggi Safety Experience Center, and Gyeonggi Pyeongtaek Port Authority, they have attracted over 2,000 members of a Chinese youth educational travel and cultural exchange group visiting Korea. This is the largest group since group tours from China to Korea resumed in August last year.

This group consists of elementary and middle school students and accompanying teachers from Jiangsu and Shandong provinces in China. They will visit Korea in three separate groups until the 6th.

After arriving at Incheon Port, the group will stay at Hanwha Resort in Yongin, Gyeonggi Province, and Ramada Hotel in Pyeongtaek. They will then participate in various K-culture experience activities such as safety experiences at the Gyeonggi Safety Experience Center (located in Osan) and the Gyeonggi Marine Safety Experience Center operated by Gyeonggi Pyeongtaek Port Authority (located in Ansan), skiing at Jisan Resort in Icheon, and making gimbap at Haechan Songhak Gim in Goyang.

Jo Wonyong, president of the organization, emphasized, "As group tourism trends from China to Korea are rapidly changing after COVID-19, it is important to develop and provide customized core content tailored to different customer types. For this student group, winter skiing, safety experiences, and cultural exchange are the key contents for attracting visitors."
