Korea Times opens photo contest of heritage sites across country

The Korea Times, in collaboration with the Korea Heritage Service, is hosting the Discover Korea's World Heritage photo contest, ahead of the 48th session of the UNESCO World Heritage Committee to be held in Busan from July 19 to 29. To commemorate the prestigious international gathering, The Korea Times invites non-Korean nationals from around the world to share their special moments captured at Korea's magnificent heritage sites. Participants are required to choose a photograph of one of Korea's 17 designated UNESCO World Heritage sites or one of the 12 sites on the Tentative List currently being promoted by the Korean government for future inscription. New photos are not a must and participants are welcome to submit existing photos from their gallery or collection, as long as it is an original photo taken by the person submitting it. Along with the photo taken at a heritage site, the participants are required to include a short story about their visit to the site. They need to upload the photo on their public social media account with the following hashtags — #thekoreatimes #korea
