I’ve been researching about South Korea for almost a year and I can say that this place a very interesting and nice destination to travel. Their mountainous region is very cool for relaxation and adventures. Now, some people around the world are looking for those famous attractions and sights inside South Korea’s very developed capital city, Seoul. Based on my research and further reading, I compile a list of those travel destination in case you want to enjoy your stay in Seoul. Here are some of those. (I will be updating this post as long as a found those beautiful spots.)

Incheon International Airport
Of course, your airplane will land on this airport.  It is the largest airport in South Korea and one of the best and busiest airport in the world. It replaced Gimpo International Airport.

Dongdaemun Market
This is one of the biggest and craziest market I know. It covers 10 city blocks and with over 30,000 shops and 50,000 manufacturers. If you’re looking for something and you can’t find it on Dongdaemun Market, it only means that what you are looking for doesn’t exist. LOL!

Cheong Wa Dae
Visit this palace and know where the President of South Korea is residing. It is also called the Blue House or Big House because its roof is composed of blue roof-tiles.

National Museum of Korea
The National Museum of Korea is the institution of record in the country for native art, culture and history. Yeah, if you want to see what Korea looks like hundred years before, just visit this place and don’t forget your camera.

National Folk Museum of Korea
My bestfriend got some very nice photos inside this beautiful museum located near the Blue House. is a national museum of South Korea. It is situated on the grounds of the Gyeongbokgung (Gyeongbok Palace) in Jongno-gu, Seoul, and uses replicas of historical objects to illustrate the folk history of the Korean people.

Gyeongbokgung Palace or Gyeongbok Palace
Blue House is the residence of the current President of South Korea while Gyeongbokgung Palace or Gyeongbok Palace is the palace where the former king lived. It was the main and largest palace of the Five Grand Palaces built by the Joseon Dynasty.
