Welcome to Gangwon-do<br />

& Gangneung<br />

Gangwon-do is located in the mid-eastern part of the Korean peninsula and is divided<br />

into two areas, Yeongdong and Yeongseo, by the Taebaek Mountains. It is bounded<br />

by East Sea on the east and its northern boundary is the Military Demarcation Line,<br />

which demarcates South Korea and North Korea.<br />

Recognized as one of the best tourist destinations by many Koreans, Gangwon-do is<br />

celebrated for its clear blue sea, outstanding natural beauty, beautiful national parks,<br />

and for having four distinct seasons.<br />

Gangwon-do also successfully hosted the 2018 PyeongChang Winter Olympic and Paralympic<br />

<strong>Games</strong>, which enable it to be fully equipped with world-class winter sports<br />

facilities, accommodations, and the necessary infrastructure.<br />

Withn just 1 to 2-hour ride from Seoul by a high-speed train (KTX) or by car, you are<br />

able to enjoy the region‘s scenic landscapes and unique culture.<br />

We send our greetings to the participants of the <strong>World</strong> <strong>Choir</strong> <strong>Games</strong> Gangneung 2022<br />

and Gangwon-do expresses a hearty welcome to all of you.<br />
