Sharing a three-day itinerary in Seoul to take you through the unique charm of this city.
On the first day, we first went to Seoul Tower, this iconic building located on the top of Namsan Mountain. It is not only the commanding height of Seoul, but also a romantic sanctuary for couples. Take the cable car slowly up the mountain and enjoy the magnificent scenery of Seoul city along the way. When you reach the top of the tower, you can overlook the entire city and feel the shock and beauty. Afterwards, we went to the Blue House, which is the presidential palace of South Korea and an important place to understand South Korea’s political history. Although you cannot go inside to visit, the outer courtyards and buildings are also worth seeing, especially the row of green tile roofs, which are very impressive.
The next day, our destination was Myeongdong, a shopping paradise in Seoul with countless fashion brands and food shops. Wandering through the streets of Myeongdong, you can enjoy shopping and taste a variety of authentic Korean snacks. Whether you are buying cosmetics, clothes or tasting delicious food such as bibimbap and fried chicken, you can return home with a full load.
On the third day, we headed to Yeouido, a small island in the center of the Han River, which is an emerging business district in Seoul. First, you can visit the headquarters of KBS TV and MBC TV on the island to experience the charm of Korean media culture. Afterwards, stroll through Yeouido Park and enjoy the beautiful natural scenery and cultural landscape. In the evening, you may want to take a Han River cruise to enjoy the dazzling night view on both sides of the Han River, which will be a perfect end to your trip to Seoul.
