title: "Complete Wellbeing: Chinese Delegation Explores Healing Tourism in Wando" Wando County has initiated efforts to attract group tourists from China, as evidenced by the recent visit of a Chinese delegation from the Hubei Province. The 10-member delegation, consisting of business representatives from Hubei's economy, tourism, and trade sectors, visited Wando from the 22nd to the 25th of last month to explore potential cooperative ventures. During their 3-night, 4-day stay, the delegation toured key tourist attractions like the Wando Tower and the Yi Sun-sin Memorial Hall, as well as visited processing facilities for abalone and seaweed. They also experienced Wando's healing programs at the Wando Marine Healing Center, engaging in activities such as abalone picking and making abalone kimbap. The Chinese delegation expressed great interest in Wando's pristine natural environment and its use of marine resources for healing programs. They discussed potential cooperative initiatives, including joint product development for healing tourism, cultural tourism exchanges, promotion and marketing of Wando's healing tourism, and expanding seafood food trade. Wando County Governor Shin Wu-cheol stated, "Our county is deeply connected to the historical figure, Admiral Yi Sun-sin, and his counterpart in Ming Dynasty China, General Qi Jiguang. In the future, we will expand our cultural tourism network with China and strive to attract more Chinese group tourists." The visiting delegation representatives praised Wando for its excellent marine environment and well-developed tourism facilities, which they considered ideal for healing tourism. They expressed their eagerness to expand exchanges between businesses and organizations, aiming to collaborate on future projects.
