The 20 spots have been sorted into categories such as places for family visits, dates, trips with a friend, or solo-travelers, and they feature locations from popular movies or TV shows.
Also, during the Travel Week period, 390 regional festivals will be held around the country.
Government organizations and local companies will also provide benefits for travelers during Travel Week,… offering 50 percent discounts on tickets for attractions like Jongmyo Shrine and Gyeongbokgung and Deoksugung palaces.
