ABSTRACT

This study aims to analyze the current utilization of cultural heritage in Yeoncheon-gun, Gyeonggi-do, as tourism content and propose effective strategies for developing and enhancing cultural tourism content. Yeoncheon is a historically and geographically unique area with abundant heritage spanning from the Paleolithic era to the modern history of division, situated along the DMZ border. However, its cultural assets have yet to be fully systematized or leveraged as integrated tourism content. The study begins by defining the concept of cultural tourism content and its components, followed by an in-depth analysis of Yeoncheon’s representative attractions—such as the “Yeoncheon Nine Scenic Views,” local festivals, and sites of ecological, military, and cultural value. It then identifies key structural issues, including infrastructural limitations, insufficient marketing, and weak community participation. Suggested improvements include digital technology adoption, strengthened storytelling, themed tourism festival development, and community-led sustainable models. This research provides both theoretical and practical foundations for the strategic planning of tourism in border regions.
