The Tourism Organization of Gyeonggi – the most populous province in the Republic of Korea (RoK) has included Vietnam in its tourism marketing strategy.
The organization said the number of Vietnamese tourists to the RoK increased by 15% last year in spite of an outbreak of the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) in the country.
Seung Pyo Hong, CEO of Gyeonggi Tourism Organization said the body will further cooperate with the Korea Tourism Organisation (KTO) in Vietnam, low-cost airlines, and partners to promote tourism activities. He unveiled a plan to invite the media to disseminate information on RoK tourism and issue tourist coupons.

 
The organisation is expected to issue  the Gyeonggi-do (Gyeonggi province) Coupon Book 2016 in Vietnamese to provide expla- nation for easy and convenient tourist destinations in Gyeonggi-do at cheap prices. 
Gyeonggi province has also planned to join the Vietnam International Tourism Fair 2016 to be held in Hanoi in April.
Tourist attractions in Gyeonggi include cherry blossoms sites, Hwaseong Citadel in Suwon, and One Mount (Goyang) Water Park.
