A full evening’s entertainment

In the bustling city that is Seoul, the nearly 6-kilometre stretch of the Cheonggyecheon Stream is an oasis of calm. Running below street level, the stream has waterfalls that are romantically illuminated after dark. If you fancy a late night bite, you can sample typical Korean dishes in the numerous cafés and eateries in the streets of Samcheong-dong. For a night out, trendy Koreans flock to the Apgujeong-dong-district, Seoul’s very own Beverly Hills.

Arts & Culture

A stroll around Bukchon Hanok Village lets you experience a traditional Korean village. The village, with its 6 centuries of history, is located between the 2 most beautiful palaces in the city, Gyeongbokgung and Changdeokgung. Unlike other traditional villages, Bukchon was not built for tourists. This is where the ruling class lived during the Joseon Dynasty and a few descendants of the aristocracy still reside here.

Arts & Culture

In the middle of the green hills that surround Seoul arises the city’s biggest attraction: the N Seoul Tower. This 237-metre-high tower offers a panoramic view of the metropolis. In the evening, the N Seoul Tower lights up with different colours – an iconic landmark of the city.

Arts & Culture

Tucked away in the busy streets that run between the skyscrapers of Seoul are a couple of very nice street markets. One of the most fun and interesting markets is Tongin Market in the neighbourhood of Hyoja-dong. The market hall has 75 stands with the finest Korean food. What makes this market truly unique is the way you choose your dishes.
