How to get there
Seoul and its palaces
Steps: Seoul
The first day in Seoul can be devoted to visiting the palaces, a stroll in Bukchon (preferably in the morning), then an evening in the quiet streets of Insadong. These different neighbourhoods are close to each other, and can be fully explored on foot. The art galleries, which are too numerous in these areas, also offer pleasant stops. On the other hand, it is difficult, in a single day, to visit all the palaces of old Seoul, and it is necessary to make choices that are sometimes difficult, as everyone has strong arguments.
Places of interest : BUKCHON HANOK VILLAGE
Seoul and its traditional houses
Steps: Seoul
The second day will be an opportunity for those who did not have time to see all the palaces to complete the visits. The rest of the day can be spent in the lively Myeongdong district, in traditional houses on the slopes of Mount Namsan, or in the huge markets. In the evening, there are many choices, from the shopping temple in Myeongdong, the very cosmopolitan Itaewon further south, to Hongdae's trendy district, popular with Seoul students.
