This program was conducted mainly in the Ulsan area and was designed to promote the value of Korean cultural heritage, as well as to enhance communication and bonds among families.


On this day, participants visited the Bangudae Petroglyphs in Ulsan, which were inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage site last month, to observe the petroglyph remains firsthand. They also spent time at the nearby Petroglyph Museum to learn more in detail.


Next, they visited Amethyst Cave Land, where they directly experienced the mysterious terrain of a natural cave and enjoyed time connecting with nature.


A parent who participated in the exploration said, "It was a meaningful time to learn about and experience cultural heritage with my child," adding, "I think it will be a lasting memory for my child as well."
