Chinese travellers adore Suncheon Bay Garden

The 184-day Suncheon Bay Garden Expo has become a favorite destination for Chinese and Japanese tourists, the event's organizer said Monday. According to the organizers, around 2,000 Chinese tourists visited the venue, located 415 kilometers south of Seoul, on Monday by using a cruise ship that arrived at South Korea's second-largest southwestern port of Gwangyang. The organizer said it dispatched seven tour guides and seven other Chinese-speaking volunteers for the convenience of the visitors. The Suncheon exposition, which kicked off on April 20, offers a wide range of exhibitions through four major districts -- the Arboretum Zone, the Wetland Center Zone, the World Garden Zone and the Wetland Zone -- in its venue of 1.11 million square meters.
