New and Better Mapo-gu

Theme tour

Mapo-gu operates various programs as part of the Yanghwajin Modern History Tour project, which is a cultural heritage site tour project sponsored by the Cultural Heritage Administration and Seoul City.
Yanghwajin Modern History Tour was selected as an excellent tour project with over 2,000 citizens participating in it every year, winning the award from the director of the Cultural Heritage Administration last year.
