About Daegu!
 
Just a couple of other things about Daegu.  It is Korea's third largest city with about 2.5 million people.  This city is also famous for having the world's most delicious apples and the most beautiful women!  Simultaneously, it is considered one of Korea's more conservative cities.  Sorry guys!!! 
 
(In Korea there is an old proverb:  Nam nam, pun nya, which means that the women of the north are beautiful, and the men of the south are handsome.  However, the ladies of Daegu, being in the south of South Korea, seems to defy this old adage!)
 
The phone number for Daegu's tourist information center is: 627-8900.  It is located in the southwest part of the city.  Probably more convenient for travelers is the tourist information booth at Dong Daegu Station or the one in the center of town, a short wak from Jung-angno subway station.
