Guemsan Ginseng Festival Kicks off on Sep. 3rd



Guemsan Ginseng Festival Kicks off on Sep. 3rd! 

Guemsan, in Southern Chungcheong-do Province, will be holding the 30th Geumsan Ginseng Festival from Sep. 3rd to 12th to celebrate the health benefits of Ginseng, a product for which the area is well known. Festivities will take place in Guemsan Ginseng Square and along the Ginseng and Medicinal Herb Streets in Geumsan-eup Joongdo-ri, and will include a number of programs that will allow guests to experience the whole ginseng process from cultivation to harvest and trade. 

Last year, the ‘Ginseng Medicinal Herb Health House’ was especially popular among visitors and has since been upgraded and renamed ‘A House Full of Energy,’ where visitors can experience the physical benefits of ginseng through the five senses. Scheduled events include a Ginseng Fashion Show, Ginseng Cocktail Show and activities using Ddukme, a mallet used when making rice cakes and ginseng.

Visitors will have the opportunity to enjoy a variety of activities such as weighing ginseng with traditional scales, peeling ginseng, selecting ginseng seeds, making ginseng wine and chopping medicinal herbs.
