Inwangsan Hike
Seochon Hanok village
Gyeongbokgung Palace
Take a short one-hour hike to the top of Inwangsan Mountain. Enjoy panoramic views of Gangnam, Namsan Mountain, and Seoul Tower, the lively downtown area, and ancient palaces that were royal homes for 500 years.
Seochon is a neighborhood to the west of Gyeongbokgung Palace, famous for its delicious restaurants. Many of these places are hidden in the alleyways and not easily accessible to the general public.
After lunch, we'll proceed to Gyeongbokgung Palace, the former residence of the Joseon Dynasty's royal family. Explore the palace's architecture and cultural nuances. Gain insights into Korean history from the Joseon Dynasty to the present day.
You'll pass through Gwanghwamun, the main gate of Gyeongbokgung Palace, and head towards Sejong-daero Street. This vibrant area hosts Korean government buildings, major embassies, and statues honoring King Sejong and Admiral Yi Sun-sin.
Sejong Street
Cheonggyecheon Stream
Following Sejong-daero, you'll reach Cheonggyecheon Stream. Originally constructed for sewage treatment 500 years ago, it was restored in the early 2000s into a beautiful oasis and a popular resting spot for Seoul citizens.
Myeongdong street
