'Natural Daegu', the rising city of eco-tourism
DAEGU, South Korea, June 10, 2019 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

The city of Daegu is celebrating '2020-the year of Tourism in Daegu and 
Gyeongbuk' by creating the new brand 'Natural Daegu' to promote its tourism 
resources for domestic and international tourists. Natural Daegu is a part of 
Daegu's 3-culture (Gaya, Silla, and Confucianism) tourism development project 
that was first launched in 2017; the new brand aims to position the natural 
resources of Daegu as a tourism asset.

Daegu has been popular as the center of Korea's modern arts and culture, and 
one of the best cities for lifestyle and urban tourism. For example, there are 
Kim Gwangseok-gil Street, decorated with murals dedicated to the songs and life 
of the late singer-songwriter Kim Gwangseok, along the street where he grew up, 
and Suseongmot Lake, where attractions such as yachts and Suseong Arte Land 
amusement park welcome visitors.

However, Daegu's ecological abundance is also a must-see for tourists. At 
Palgongsan Mountain, there are cherry blossoms in the spring, fall foliage in 
the autumn, and snowscapes in the winter, presenting a magnificent view all 
year. At Biseulsan Mountain, one can view historic temples and monuments, rare 
wildflowers, and the panorama of Daegu's scenic nature. The ancient tombs in 
Bullo-dong, where the large scaled tombs from the Three Kingdoms Period lay 
along the hills, are recommended for photo shoots. The sunset along the nearby 
tree line is a sight not to be missed.

Dalseong Marsh, known as "the cradle of ecological resources", and the Hajungdo 
Islet on Geumhogang River, where one can enjoy seasonal wildflowers in the 
beautiful scenery, are also frequented by the tourist. There are many 
ecological tourism attractions that exhibit the harmony of culture and the 
nature, such as the beautifully designed ARC building, and Nakdonggang River 
Eco Tour paths,where one can learn and identify animals and plants that inhabit 
the river.

Landing directly to Daegu International Airport is the easiest way to get to 
Daegu.

Direct flight to Daegu departs daily from Tokyo, Osaka, Fukuoka, and Sapporo, 
in addition to other direct connections from Japan, mainland China, Taiwan, 
Hong Kong, Vietnam, and more. Making Daegu as your first destination in Korea 
is highly recommended.

Trendy urban scenery with the backdrop of pristine nature of Daegu, the city of 
ecological tourism, will present unforgettable experiences and relaxation.
