Hello😊

Everyone, do you know where the city of Korean ships is today? It's Naju! Is this your first time hearing about the city of Naju? Today, I'll introduce you to Naju~

1️⃣ Introduction to Naju

If you look at the map, Naju is a city located in Jeollanam-do, Korea, and is a place with beautiful historical heritage and natural scenery. Naju was an important cultural and administrative center, especially during the Goryeo Dynasty, and there are many historical sites from that time. Representative historical sites include Naju Geumseongsanseong Fortress, Najuhyanggyo, and Naju Moksa Naea.

2️⃣ Hometown of Pears - Naju

If you go to Naju, you will see pear-related food everywhere. Then why is Naju known as the home of pears? Naju has a mild climate and fertile soil, providing an environment suitable for pear cultivation. In particular, pears grown in areas with large temperature differences have high sugar content and good taste. Naju is a pear cultivation area with a long history, and traditional cultivation methods have been passed down to this day. Local farmers take pride in their efforts to produce high-quality pears.

3️⃣ Naju Pear Museum

Naju also has a pear museum. This museum introduces the history and culture of Naju pears, and provides information on the cultivation process and various varieties of pears. The pear museum is a popular place for local residents as well as tourists. The pear museum plays a major role in informing people of the importance and value of Naju pears, and contributes to the local economy and culture.

And the Naju Pear Museum also operates a pear picking experience program. This experience is very popular with families and tourists. There is also a shop in the museum where you can purchase various souvenirs and special products related to Naju pears. As you can see in the photo below, the pear picking experience is usually held from summer to fall, which is the harvest season. During this period, the pears are the most delicious and in the best condition for picking. If you go to Naju next year, I recommend that you refer to the experience event schedule and go~

Today, I introduced you to Naju, the hometown of pears. Naju seems like a really charming city. I want to go there someday. Do you like this kind of natural city?
