俯覽博覽會全景
「2013山清世界傳統醫藥博覽會」將於二零一三年九月六日至十月二十日在韓國慶尚南道山清郡舉行。山清郡是土壤肥沃、空氣清新、水源潔淨的人間樂土。境內的智異山是韓國五大名山之一,亦是韓國第一座國立公園,更被CNN選為五十個韓國必遊景點之一。
韓劇「大長今」、「醫道」等甚受觀眾歡迎,而利用韓醫藥學治病救人的歷史悠久,「大長今」劇中常出現的各類藥膳材料有不少是來自山清的天然藥材,而「醫道」中的許浚便是在山清土生土長,並在當地跟其師傅「柳義泰」學習醫術的地方。此外,今年適逢是朝鮮時代著名的醫學著作《東醫寶鑑》發行四百周年,因此在山清舉行「2013山清世界傳統醫藥博覽會」是適時適地之舉,甚富意義!
