Great shopping holiday in Seoul

“Seoul Grand Sale” is the main festival of the year for all shopping enthusiasts, which will be held under the leadership of the Seoul authorities from July 21 to September 12. About five thousand shops and shopping centers of the city will take part in the festival. Discounts in the capital of Korea will be not only in establishments related to trade, but also in hotels, beauty salons and restaurants, which are most popular with tourists. A water taxi plying the Han River will also participate in the action. Previously, paper coupons were used in Seoul, but the city hall decided to introduce a system of mobile coupons and membership cards for greater convenience. As part of the “Seoul Grand Sale 2010” will be held not only the opening ceremony of the festival, but also many entertainment events in the shopping areas of Seoul.
