An eclectic capital city with wide avenues and thousands of shops, Seoul is a buzzing place that beautifully blends the old with the new. One of Asia's must-see cities!
My suggestion
Buy a pass for the efficient metro network, so you can get off and tour neighbourhoods by foot.

Seoul, capital of Korea, is a city where you can spend several full and varied days.
My suggestion
From your arrival at the airport, buy a reloadable transport card, you can use it for the metro and the bus, it's practical because it saves wasting time.
South Korea is fascinating when it comes to cookery: each day after work, Koreans meet up amongst friends in restaurants or street stands to talk and relish low-priced dishes.
Seoul is an ideal place to visit if you want to really get to the heart of Korean culture, in all its strange exoticness! Shops, culture, food, things to see and do: you're bound to find something you'll enjoy during your visit!
