About Seoul

Seoul’s palaces, hanok lanes and traditional shops cluster around Jongno. Myeongdong and Dongdaemun are known for shopping and street food, while Gangnam has temples and malls and Hongdae has cafés and independent clothing shops. Use the metro to get around the city, with a full day for Nami Island or Everland. Longer itineraries can add Busan by KTX.
