Getting to the Seoul Tower Observatory can be an experience as memorable as the view from the tower itself. Just outside of Seoul’s urban hustle and bustle is the lush isolation of Nam Mountain and its park.
Visit the DMZ and explore the 3rd Infiltration Tunnel.
While Seoul’s cityscape is dominated by skyscrapers now, the masterpieces of architecture from the Joseon dynasty still stand. You’ll see the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Changdeokgung with the afternoon tour, and modern and century-old marvels on the morning tour.
Take a historical journey through the 2nd Tunnel, a relic nestled 13 km north of Cholwon within the DMZ between North and South Korea. Unearthed on March 19, 1975, this tunnel could once accommodate up to 30,000 armed soldiers in just sixty minutes, complete with vehicles, artillery, and even tanks.
In the 50+ years that Korea has been divided, the North and South have become two distinct entities. A trip to the DMZ will let you realize just how close the two countries are. Only 2.5 kilometers divide them, but the rift of history and ideology is immeasurable.
Looking for an amazing aquarium housing over 40,000 spectacular sea creatures? You’ve found it.
There’s no denying that superheroes are big business these days. Marvel releases are among the highest grossing films of all time, and comics aren’t a dirty little secret to be hidden under your bed anymore. Instead, figurines and rare issues take pride of place on shelves everywhere.
The Football Faentasium is a unique space devoted to all things football, presenting the proud history of the sport in South Korea through fascinating interactive exhibits.
If you’re visiting Seoul, it’s worth taking the time to journey further north to visit the demilitarized zone that separates North and South Korea. Be part of the ongoing history that divides the country, not just by barbed wire fences and armed guards, but by ideology.
