Seoul is a city filled with excitement. The cutting edge metropolis possesses a modern, trend setting ambiance that somehow contrasts seamlessly with centuries old temples and traditional customs. Even in high tech, 21st century Seoul there can still be found an air of mystery, with ancient wonders to be revealed. From the modern to the historic, this is a city with many surprises.

Unquestionably one of the most economically and socially important cities in Asia and the world, a walk along its bustling streets reveals a place unlike any other. Seoul’s skyline is nothing short of a monument to progress and economic success. Glittering structures like the N Seoul Tower and World Trade Centre rise high above a diverse landscape filled with lush parks like Namsan and trendy shopping and entertainment districts such as Myeongdong and Sinchon. Seoul markets like the one found at Namdaemun are filled with food vendors and local souvenirs and nearby Korean restaurants serve up delicious cuisine from fresh seafood to local versions of Chinese and Japanese Shabu-shabu. The central city is a shopping paradise and food lovers dream all rolled into one.

Seoul is packed with interesting things to see and do and even if its brash, ultra-modern exterior overshadows it, the city’s ancient past can still be experienced today. Visit the grand palaces of the Jongno District and marvel at the intricate Asian architecture and beautiful garden design. The city also features many temples and shrines both historic and modern, offering a rare yet peaceful glimpse into ancient religious practices and places of worship.
