"Of the numerous festivals in Korea, it is the Boryeong Mud Festival that probably attracts the largest number of international visitors.
During the festival period, tourists flock to the area to experience the beneficial properties of the Boryeong mud, and also to have lots of fun. Fully immersed in both the mud and the festival's great atmosphere, visitors enjoy mud wrestling, mud sliding and even swimming in the mud mega tub. Visitors feeling particularly energetic can try the marine mud-training course, whilst those looking for something more chilled can relax in the mud massage zone.
In the evening, music and fireworks continue the party on the beach. "
Hi! Do you know if this is very far from CRC? I would love to attend this!
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately it is a ways from CRC. It will take 3-4 hours to get there. It is on the West coast. I saw that Discover Korea in DHL has tours going out there as well.
ReplyDeleteAccording to Frommer's South Korea:
From the Dong Seoul Bus Terminal, take a bus headed for Daecheon. Buses run daily from 0640 to 1750, taking about 3 hours. From Seoul's Express Bus Terminal, buses headed for Daecheon run daily from 0600 to 2150, taking about 2 hours and 20 minutes.
