Asia's largest cultural center in the southwestern city of Gwangju said Monday it has scheduled three tours daily to introduce its vast space to visitors.

The Asia Culture Center opened last month in a government project to nurture Gwangju as the cultural center of Asia.

ACC said it runs tours at 1 p.m., 2:30 p.m. and 4 p.m. daily to guide visitors through the old South Jeolla provincial office remodeled for the center.

Among the areas available to visit is the Library Park, which is a combination of a library, archive and museum. Visitors to this space may explore the archives in 13 topics, ranging from Asian photography, performing arts to architecture, for free.

Exhibits themed on Asian mythologies and cities are on display at ACC Creation, which are accessible with an entrance fee of 20,000 won ($17) for adults.

ACC boasts the largest cultural space for children in South Korea; ACC Children, which is basically a smaller version of ACC itself and provides educational and experiential programs for kids.

Reservations are required, with nearly all performances scheduled at ACC Children for this month currently sold out.

Visitors may also take a trip to Gwangju's popular fashion neighborhood just across from ACC. Guesthouses are available within a five-minute walking distance. (Yonhap)
