Korea Tour : Hwacheon Ice Fishing Festival

Hwacheon County will run free shuttle buses to attract foreign tourists to its flagship ice fishing festival that begins on Jan. 7. The festival will continue through Jan. 29.
 


The buses will take people between three locations in Seoul -- in front of the Dongwha Duty Free Shop in Gwanghwamun, Exit No.2 of subway station "Hongil Univ" and Exit No.8 of subway station "Euljiro 1(il)-ga" - and the venue for the Hwacheon Sancheoneo Ice Festival in Gangwon Province.




 
Buses will depart from the locations in Seoul at 8 a.m. and arrive at the festival venue around 10 a.m. On their return, the buses will drop passengers at Seoul's Yongsan Station.
 


The county is taking reservations through www.gogogangwon.com or www.winterfriend.com. The shuttle bus service is open exclusively to foreign passport holders.
 
Hwacheon Sancheoneo Ice Festival is one of South Korea's most popular winter festivals and attracts more than a million people a year.
