Jeonju da la Bienvenida a Latinoamericanos
Poco se ha explorado de lo mucho que Corea ofrece para ver, vivir y disfrutar. Especialmente, debido a la distancia y la barrera del idioma, los Latinoamericanos tenemos un recorrido muy grande por delante para disfrutar de las maravillosas vistas, la historia y la cultura que Corea, como país puede ofrecer. Sus calles seguras, su gente respetuosa, su alta cocina y en general, cada paso y cada momento trasciende en aromas, sonidos, sabores y paisajes únicos en el mundo.
Particularmente desde mi país Guatemala, más de 19 horas de vuelo… viniendo por la ruta más corta, explica el enorme campo que tenemos aun por recorrer en este maravilloso país.
El valor agregado más importante de Corea… su gente
Es tal vez la gente, los coreanos y coreanas dispuestos siempre a dar una mano, a ayudar al extranjero, respetuosos de la diferencia y admiradores de otros pueblos, no hay duda que las personas son el valor más importante de Corea.
Que hace especial en Jeonju?
Podría decirse que Jeounju es el equivalente Guatemalteco a Antigua Guatemala, una vez fue capital del reino de Corea y mantiene vivas las estructuras que le distinguen como ciudad especial. 
Su clima es inigualable y entre otros lugares recomendables para visitar están: La universidad católica de Jeongdong, Mercados tradicionales, museos, parques naturales, aunque definitivamente es tomar un paseo por sus calles lo que no tiene comparación.
En Jeonju puede verse desde una flor cuyos colores vivos inspiran al artista, hasta el degustarse el suculento bibimbap, el cual no solamente representa uno de los corazones de la cocina coreana, sino que tiene su raíz precisamente en esa ciudad
Por que Corea?
Corea ofrece una oportunidad única para apreciar en un solo país la combinación entre lo tradicional y lo moderno, lo clásico y lo sofisticado, la cultura y la innovación.

An Invitation to
Makgeolli Experience Tour
for Foreign Investors
We would like to invite you to an unforgettable experience in Pocheon, Gyeonggi Province where you can experience the best of Western and Eastern Culture in the very same day.
Makgeolli (막걸리, also known as Korean rice wine or rice beer), has been around in Korea for centuries, but only in recent years it has made a comeback into the mainstream. The quality has dramatically improved, and now it is praised for its contribution to health and its great flavor. Time to find out the fascination of Makgeolli for yourself!
The tour, as you will find out, includes far more than just a couple of drinks of Makgeolli, though.
We will begin the tour with the visit of “Herb Island”, including the biggest herb botanic garden in Korea. Here you can admire many herb plants and herb related products in all its varieties, as well as enjoying the European flavor the place is famous for.
The highlight of the tour, however, is “Sansawon”: a place devoted to traditional Korean liquor. Here, you will be able to make your own Makgeolli! Moreover, you can taste 20 sorts of Korean liquor and visit the liquor museum.
This event will also be a perfect “learning-doing-experience” for you – when you leave the place, you will find out that you know lot more about Korean traditional drinks, as well as gain a deeper understanding of the Korean culture!
If you are interested, register quickly as we can only accept 35 families for this tour.
Call 1600-7119 and ask about the Makgeolli Experience tour.
Best regards,
Invest KOREA, KOTRA
