Korea"s heritage sites attracting more visitors by Cheap Flights Booker UK

The Korea Tourism Organisation has revealed that a number of sites and attractions across the country have benefited from being inscribed on the Unesco World Heritage list.

Recognition has been given to locations such as the royal tombs from the Chosun dynasty, which were added to the list in June 2009 and saw a substantial hike in visitor numbers the following year.

Unesco has also awarded World Heritage status to the well-preserved clan villages of Hahoe in Andong and Yangdong in Gyeongju.

As a result of the listing, the number of overseas guests recorded at these attractions almost doubled.

Awareness of the sites and accessibility for visitors have also been boosted by the creation of a series of Unesco-related tour packages, which make it easier for visitors to explore South Korea"s royal palaces, tombs, shrines and other historic locations.

Travellers interested in visiting the country can begin their journey by catching flights to Seoul, which are available with carriers such as Asiana, Korean Air, China Eastern and Cathay Pacific.
