About This Template

Why this Seoul board feels complete

Build a 3-day Seoul city break around royal palaces, traditional hillside neighborhoods, and sunset skyline views. Day 1 walks through Gyeongbokgung Palace, Bukchon Hanok Village, and Insa-dong in Jongno. Day 2 starts at Gwangjang Market, passes the Dongdaemun Design Plaza, and ends with a cable car up N Seoul Tower at sunset. Day 3 covers Changdeokgung Palace, Myeongdong shopping, and an evening stroll along the Cheonggyecheon Stream. Spring and autumn bring mild weather, but the palaces, markets, and cafe scene reward visitors year-round.
