‘The Living
Ocean and Coast’
Expo 2012 Yeosu is started on May 12. This Expo is the first theme
of ocean Expo in the world. Yeosu is my hometown so I will introduce the Yeosu
Expo to you. The world’s
first opening festival over the ocean was held with a theme of “the Dreaming
Ocean.” Also all of exhibition centers are over the ocean. Visitors could
preview the theme of the Yeosu Expo, the Living Ocean and Coast, while enjoying
the beautiful night of Yeosu. There are some introductions on the official
site.
“The
Yeosu Expo will provide an opportunity to enhance the international community’s
perception of the function and value of the ocean and coast, share knowledge on
the proper use of the ocean and coast and recognize the need for cooperation in
the marine sector. It will also serve as a venue to learn about the
achievements of and future models for the marine sector and offer a valuable
chance to promote state-of-the-art marine science and technology and marine
industries.”
The Expo will be an opportunity for the international community to
clearly understand the role of the ocean and coast as well as the challenge
facing humanity caused by the reckless development of the ocean and coast. The
Exposition will present a role model for transforming the declining port and
its neighboring area into a new space for living. Participants will be able to
experience cutting-edge marine science and technology for the future.
Next, I’ll give you some tips of traveling Yeosu. When you finished
seeing exhibition centers of Expo, you will go to eat something. By the way, Yeosu-si
is included in Jeollanam-do that is famous for delicious foods. There are many
famous restaurants, but I will pick one restaurant. Yeosu’s famous food is Crab
Marinated in Soy Sauce. (Seasoned raw crab, 간장게장) This
food is my favorite foodJ I will introduce 황소식당(Hwang-so restaurant).
There are two main dishes: 간장게장, 양념게장 These are just seven-thousand won. These are very delicious and large
in quantity. You have to go 황소식당 when you go to Yeosu!
I was talking to my friend yesterday about the Yeosu Expo, and he mentioned the seasoned raw crab that is famous in Yeosu. He said that people call it "the rice thief"...
답글삭제Perhaps I will visit Yeosu in early June. I am looking forward to seeing the huge aquarium.
Welcome to Yeosu!
삭제"the rice thief" hahaha This is right. I can eat a bowl of rice with one 간장게장.
Oh! You have to rserve the auquarium because there are many people.
