To us, the capital of South Korea kiiiind of feels like the capital of the world. Brimming with karaoke bars, fantastic museums and insanely good food, this city is the kind of place you'll never be bored.
Home to hundreds of restored traditional Korean houses, called hanok, the Bukchon Hanok Village is the ideal place for a stroll after visiting the nearby palaces.
This historic palace and cultural landmark is conveniently located in the heart of Seoul, so you have no excuse to miss it. Perfect for a brief history lesson on South Korea and worth the stay to see the change of guard ceremony. A peaceful activity to appreciate the local architecture and costumes, colours and patterns.
