Isn’t October the best time to go on a trip? Just in time, the Korea Tourism Organization is holding a fall travel stamp event. Yanggu-gun, Gangwon-do is expanding the number of visitors to Dutayeon, a scenic spot for fall foliage.
A project to enjoy autumn travel for the whole nation
The Korea Tourism Organization is presenting the ‘100 Autumn Festival Trips’ stamp tour event until December 10th. This event is designed to allow people to enjoy a variety of domestic trips along with local festivals held in the fall. From tourist attractions that can be easily visited on the weekend, such as Seoul’s five major palaces and Jongmyo Shrine, to representative cultural and tourism festivals such as Suwon Hwaseong Cultural Festival and Gangneung Coffee Festival, as well as night tours where you can enjoy cool autumn nights, such as Incheon Open Port Cultural Heritage Night Tour and Daegu Suseong Light Art Festival. Tourism content was also included. Anyone can participate. All you have to do is download the ‘All That Stamp’ application, sign up as a member, and click ‘Participate in the ‘100 Fall Festival Tours’ stamp tour. When you enter within a 500m radius of a designated tourist attraction, you automatically obtain a stamp, and you can get a chance to win a prize by visiting just one of the 100 stamp tour tourist attractions.

Yanggu-gun, Gangwon-do is expanding the number of visitors to Dutayeon during the month of October. Dutayeon is a valley located in Geonsori-ri, Bangsan-myeon, Yanggu-gun. It is famous for the beautiful sight of colorful autumn leaves, such as red, orange, and yellow, reflected in the valley water under the blue autumn sky. Yanggu-gun divided the number of visitors to Dutayeon on weekdays into pre-reservation and on-site registration, increasing the number of pre-reservations from 300 to 600 and the number of on-site registrations from 100 to 200. However, the number of visitors on weekends will remain the same as before, with 600 people making reservations in advance and 200 people registering on site. As a result, up to 800 people will be able to enter Dutayeon per day this month.
Entrance to Dutayeon is possible six times a day: 9am, 10am, 11am and 1pm, 2pm, and 3pm. Tourists wishing to enter Dutayeon must arrive at the Geumgangsan Information Center 30 minutes before the entry time and bring their ID card.
