New Buyeo tour to celebrate UNESCO World Heritage inscription!

Baekje Historic District is newly reforming the city tour of Buyeo in Chungnam province after being inscribed on UNESCO’s World Cultural and Natural Heritage list.

The city tours consist of four main routes, operating from March to November each year.
The first tour runs on Saturdays and includes the historic district of Baekje and traditional music performances afterwards. The second course runs on Sundays and focuses on Korean ginseng and other aspects of ancient Baekje culture. Also from August this year, Lotte is launching new Lotte tours. Its Friday day tour includes visiting Gungnamji Pond, which is beautifully adorned with lotus flowers. The Lotte tours are also offered in the morning and afternoon, and depart from Lotte Buyeo Resort.

Reservations are available on site but booking and confirmation are highly recommended, as the tour programs are subject to cancellation if the minimum number of 5 participants is not reached. Tour reservations are available online at Buyeo’s cultural tour website or by phone.
