The Seoul Metropolitan Government said Thursday that it will operate 1,000 buses carrying a catch phrase saying, "Now is the time, Visit Seoul!" until the end of China`s one-week National Day holiday season ending on October 7.

The catch phrase was created by Seoul Mayor Park Won-soon, who also used it on various promotional materials during his campaign earlier this month in three major Chinese cities to promote tourism in Seoul.
