10 Sites to See in Seoul

If you are traveling in Seoul, there are several different places that you should definitely see while you are there. These are some of the sites that are great for making some of the best memories. Here is my list:

1. Palaces. Seoul has 5 different palaces, that are slightly different in how they look. Each palace can be something that makes a great impression on you as you visit each one. These typically dated to the Joseon dynasty of the Korean period of medicine (the kingdom before the Japanese invaded in the 1900s). They are definitely worth seeing once. Each of the 5 palaces are representations of some of the developments that have been made apparent in the culture (such as floor heating->so each tour is educational for you as well).
2. Namsan Tower. Namsan Tower is a restaurant and tower located on the Namsan Mountain in Seoul. There is a restaurant and also a cafe, as well as a few shops there for people to take advantage of. Additionally, the tower can rotate around, thus allowing individuals in the tower a larger view of the city. That can help you to see more of the city, which is great especially at night. The city lights come alive more frequently when you see it at night.
3. MyeongDong. This is like a giant outdoor mall. There are a lot of a variety of different shops that are available, so you might be able to find about anything you want to buy in this district.
