South Korea Seeks UNESCO World Heritage Expansion For 'Getbol' Tidal Flats

Residents hang naturally dyed fabric on a clothesline to dry at a former elementary school building on Yeojado Island in Yeosu, South Korea, on May 29, 2026. The island community has repurposed parts of the closed school for local cultural and community activities. Yeojado, located in Yeojaman Bay, is being highlighted as a key site in the proposed second-phase expansion of the UNESCO World Heritage property “Getbol, Korean Tidal Flats,” which aims to strengthen the ecological continuity of tidal-flat ecosystems across South Korea’s southwestern coast.
