Expanding Stay-Type Tourism with Cable Cars, Beaches, and Nighttime Attractions

Sacheon City in South Gyeongsang Province is working to attract summer tourists by leveraging various tourist resources that connect the ocean, forests, as well as cultural and leisure facilities.

Sacheon, set against the backdrop of Hallyeohaesang National Park, is a tourist destination where visitors can enjoy the sea, islands, and mountains together. The city is striving to develop itself as a stay-type tourism city, focusing on marine tourism and hands-on experiential content.
