Seoul Tower

Visiting Seoul Tower is a very classic itinerary when coming to Seoul. Located on the summit of Namsan in Seoul, N Seoul Tower, also known as Namsan Tower, is one of Seoul's most famous landmarks. Built in 1975, it is a structure that combines tourism and TV broadcasting. Namsan's summit is 243 meters high, and the tower itself is 236.7 meters tall, making it the highest point in Seoul. From the top, you can overlook the entire city, and the tower's lights change with the seasons and themes, making it especially dazzling.

Gyeongbokgung Palace

Gyeongbokgung Palace is the main royal palace of the Joseon Dynasty, built in 1394. It is the largest and most beautifully designed of the five grand palaces of Joseon, making it highly representative. It has also been featured in Korean dramas such as Queen In-hyun's Man and Guardian: The Lonely and Great God. When visiting Seoul, consider adding Gyeongbokgung Palace to your itinerary to explore Korean history, admire the beauty of palace architecture, and even wear hanbok to feel as if you have traveled back in time to the Joseon Dynasty.

Bukchon Hanok Village

Bukchon Hanok Village is a village filled with classic traditional Korean architecture. It is home to traditional Korean-style buildings with a history of more than 600 years. In the past, this area was where nobles lived, while today it is a residential neighborhood, with some buildings converted into museums and exhibition halls that can be visited for an admission fee. There are also tea houses and cafés. When visiting Bukchon Hanok Village, you can stroll among the traditional buildings and enjoy its charming nostalgic atmosphere, or step inside a hanok and fully experience its unique appeal.

Ewha Shopping District

The Ewha Shopping District is located near Ewha Womans University Station on Seoul Subway Line 2. It is a shopping area that developed around Ewha Womans University, Korea's first women's university. The area is full of clothing stores and eateries that appeal to female college students, and since the main customer base is students, prices are also quite affordable.
