A familiarization tour for foreigners covering Palgongsan Mountain, Sobaeksan Mountain, and the Yeongnam Alps was conducted last Monday.

The Daegu Metropolitan Government had developed a Palgongsan Mountain-tracking familiarization tour course with the Korea Tourist Service. It invited Japanese travel agents and conducted the tour. The course covered Donghwasa Temple, Yeombulam Rock, Dongbong Peak, Yeombulbong Peak, Sinryeongje Ridge, Neungseonje Ridge, Inbong Peak, and Gwanbong Peak.

“This region is close to Japan and has famous mountains. Tour courses that cover our beautiful mountains will attract Japanese tourists and promote the local economy,” said a Daegu official.
