Virtual medical trip to Hubei kicks off in Seoul

If Li Shizhen, one of the most famous herbalists in ancient China and the author of Bencao Gangmu (Compendium of Materia Medica) from the Ming Dynasty (1368-1644) were still alive, he would undoubtedly be trying to find a cure to COVID-19 in his home of Hubei.

Recently, the China Tourism Office in Seoul launched an online exhibition, sharing six trips focused on Chinese medicine and health culture in Hubei province.

The trips recommended include a tour in Qichun county, hometown of Li Shizhen, Wudang mountain, cradle of Taoism, and the Yekaitai Chinese medicine culture town.
