All about the trip
Join us for this memorable city tour in Seoul. You will see some of the most beautiful places in this part of the country.
Our first stop is Jongmyo Royal Shrine. This site of history and culture was dedicated to deceased kings and queens of the Korean Joseon Dynasty. It is the oldest royal Confucian shrine preserved. The Jongmyo is part of the UNESCO World Heritage list since 1995.
After this amazing site, we move to a small shopping center Insadong. In this alley, you will experience the culture of Korea with art galleries, craft stores, antique art dealers, traditional tea houses and restaurants. Insadong antique shop alley is basically a Korean culture show.
If you want to see typical Korean houses and feel the real atmosphere of this country, you just need to visit Bukchon Hanok Village. This traditional village is located on the top of a hill between Gyeongbok Palace, Changdeok Palace and Jongmyo Royal Shrine. It has a lot of alleys, typical houses and its about 600 years old.
The next stop will be the Sungnyemun Gate or Namdaemun Gate. It is one of the Eight Gates in the Fortress Wall of Seoul. The gate is dated back to the 14th century. Next to the gate is the Namdaemun market, an open-air market from the Joseon Dynasty. In this place daily products are exchanged between urban and rural areas of Korea since its foundation.
When our afternoon tour full of culture and architecture comes to its end, we will take you to Myeongdong or City Hall.
