Ulsan City is inviting citizens to participate in a special ceremony celebrating the first anniversary of the 'Petroglyphs of Bangudae Terrace' being inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. The event, scheduled to be held at the Ulsan City Hall lobby, aims to foster a sense of pride among residents for safeguarding this significant cultural asset.

Under the banner of "Ulsan, where citizens are the owners," the city is seeking to make the commemoration a citizen-centric event. A total of 50 participants will be selected on a first-come, first-served basis. Those interested can apply through a QR code on promotional materials by November 13th. All participants will receive a commemorative gift after the ceremony.

To further mark this milestone, Ulsan City has organized a series of related events. A special exhibition at the Petroglyph Museum will run until April 25th of next year, and a related exhibition will be held at the Ulsan Library until November 30th. Additionally, an international academic conference is planned for November at the Ulsan Exhibition and Convention Center.
