Paju City in Gyeonggi Province is operating an "education institution-linked familiarization tour" three times between the 8th and 22nd to enhance local students' understanding of history and culture and to revitalize tourist destinations.
The fam tour is organized in connection with the "Paju City Tour" to introduce local tourism resources to future generations and provide on-site experiential learning opportunities.
Participating students will board the Paju Imjingak Peace Gondola and tour "Camp Greaves," a former U.S. military base returned to Korea, where they will learn about the history of the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) and the meaning of peace.
They will then visit Sanmeoru Farm to engage in hands-on activities using local specialty products.
"Through the fam tour, we will encourage students to step outside the classroom and experience Paju's history and nature firsthand, using it as an opportunity to spark interest in local tourism," a Paju City official said.
