Why visit Seoul?
Seoul blends cutting-edge design, lively neighbourhoods, and historic architecture into a city that feels energetic at every hour. You will find quiet backstreets, scenic views from low mountains, and dynamic riverside parks within easy reach of the city centre.
What to expect
The city is defined by districts such as Gangnam, Hongdae, and Myeongdong, each with a distinct character, from fashion and nightlife to arts and beauty. Wide avenues, compact alleyways, and green spaces create a mix of modern towers and low-rise streets that invite you to keep exploring.
Plan your trip
Seoul works well for short breaks as well as longer stays that include nearby cities such as Suwon and Incheon. It is also a convenient base for exploring wider regions of South Korea, thanks to efficient intercity trains and buses that radiate from the capital.
