(임실=연합뉴스) 김동철 기자 = 전북 임실군이 반려동물 문화와 관광산업의 거점이 될 세계명견 아트뮤지엄 건립을 본격 추진한다.

오수의견관광지 일원에 들어서는 아레나 오수는 오수면 금암리에 지상 2층, 연면적 2천599㎡ 규모로 건립된다.
1층에는 미디어아트 전시관, 반려동물 돌봄실, 카페, 농산물·기념품 판매 공간이 마련되며 2층에는 전시관과 관람 공간이 들어선다.
핵심 시설인 미디어아트 전시관은 1·2층을 하나로 잇는 복층형 구조로 설계돼 개방감을 높인 몰입형 전시 공간으로 꾸며진다.
건물 외관은 내후성 강판과 송판 노출 콘크리트, 고밀도 목재 패널을 적용해 차별화한 건축미를 구현한다.
아레나 오수는 각종 인증과 심의, 인허가 절차를 거쳐 2027년 3월 착공할 예정이다.

Jeju Island is holding a pop-up event in Songdo to attract tourists from the metropolitan area to mark the peak fall tourism season in October, as well as customized promotions for China's National Day and Taiwan's Double Ten Festival holidays for overseas tourists. In addition, it will distribute tourism demand and lay the foundation for attracting international events by linking with large-scale domestic events such as the National Sports Festival and Tamna Cultural Festival.

Even though the Chuseok holiday is shorter than last year, the reservation rate for flights departing Cheongju Airport is around 80% for international flights and 90% for Jeju, and most of them are sold out. Major lodging facilities in the province are also running out of rooms, showing that the tourism industry in North Chungcheong Province is revitalizing. Increasing demand for short-distance routes and special events at resorts, pensions, and glamping sites are attracting tourists, and local governments are also responding by extending operating hours of tourist facilities and traditional play experience programs.

Pocheon City announced that during the Chuseok holiday period from the 24th to the 26th, the operating hours of 'Terra Fantasia', the Hantan River Media Art Park, will be extended by one hour from 11 PM to midnight, and a special street performance will be introduced. This is a measure to allow family tourists to enjoy the fall scenery and media art of the Hantangang River more leisurely.
