Itinerary
It’s impossible to pass through Seoul without taking the time to taste its many culinary specialties! Rich in flavors and textures, you will see that Korean cuisine is very different from ours.
The imposing building on your right is the Constitutional Court of Korea, established in 1988 within the framework of the Sixth Republic of South Korea, which comes as a result of the movement of the Korean population calling for more democracy.
It is often considered the most beautiful temple in Seoul: the Jogyesa Temple, which is on your right.
In front of you, you have one of the main shopping centers of the city.
We are currently in the Insadong district, one of Seoul’s must-see areas.
You arrive here in another traditional neighborhood, similar to the Bukchon Village located a little higher up the hill, although much less ancient.
Here we are at the door of Jongmyo Shrine. Unfortunately, he cannot be seen from here, but his story deserves to be told.
This garden facing Jongmyo Shrine is Wolnam Park, a small green haven in downtown Seoul, pleasant for a walk or picnic in nature.
Here you are in Tapgol Park, a small green space located in the heart of downtown Seoul.
Here you are on one of Seoul’s most enjoyable walks along a river that has shaped the city’s history.
You are in one of the city’s main squares, which leads straight to Gyeongbokgung Palace and gives a breathtaking view of Bukhansan Mountain, considered the city’s protective mount.
This large bronze statue is the true symbol of the central square, installed in alignment with the royal palace and the sacred mountain.
Seoul is a city with no less than 5 palaces, but if there is one you should not miss it is this! Gyeongbokgung Palace is the main one in the city and also the largest.
This small monument located in the heart of the road is an old watchtower that was once part of the royal palace.
Here you pass the Museum of Contemporary and Modern Art of Korea.
We enter here the traditional district of Seoul, an opportunity for me to tell you the history of this capital today very touristy.
Here you are in front of a panorama of the western part of Seoul city, overlooked by the mountains of Bukhansan National Park located a few kilometers from Seoul.
You are in the most authentic part of Seoul, the Bukchon Hanok Village. Now more than 600 years old, this neighborhood features typically Korean houses called the Hanok.
This is one of the most emblematic views of the Korean capital, as it gives a nice glimpse of a typical Hanok village street

I downloaded the app & guide, but couldn't open it. Sent help request to both organization & viator - still waiting for a refund since I haven't heard from either of them.
