There are so many beautiful places in South Korea from the Hanok buildings of Jeonju to the coastline of Jeju Island to the palaces of Seoul.
Today, this Seoul palace is restored and available for visitors to explore the rich history and beautiful grounds.
The area of Insa-dong is also home to several captivating museums such as Kyung-in Museum of Fine Art, the Beautiful Tea Museum and the quirky Alive Museum.
The village is full of traditional Korean houses called ‘hanoks’. Today, many of these ‘hanoks’ operate as cultural centres, restaurants and tea houses.
There are various Seoul Wall hiking trails to choose from, each with its own offering of beauty and discovery.
If you make your way up to Ihwa Mural Village, be sure to appreciate the beautiful art, but also be respectful that it is, in fact, a residential area.
