Things to do in South Korea

I visited Jeju Island during my trip to South Korea. Located in southwestern South Korea, Jeju Island is the largest island in the country and its only special autonomous province. The direct flight from Guangzhou to Jeju Island takes about two and a half hours. Jeju Island is famous for its volcanic landscape and mild climate, earning it the nickname "Korea's Hawaii." In 2007, its natural landscapes, including Hallasan Mountain and lava caves, were listed as a UNESCO World Natural Heritage Site. Famous attractions on the island include Hallasan Mountain, lava caves, Seongsan Ilchulbong Peak, and the Olle Trails, among others.

It's quite fun. There are lots of different rides and facilities, making it suitable for families with children. There are also shows at night. The only downside is that it gets very crowded. The better rides have long queues.

Having tickets ahead of time was a great time saver. We bought the all stop ticket so we were able to hop off and get back on at our leisure. The glass bottom sky walk and twin lighthouses were very pretty. We didn’t take it all the way to the end as we needed to go back towards Gwangali Beach and Mipo station is much closer. The view along the tracks is beautiful. And the announcements/information is in English, Chinese, Japanese and Korean. It was very informative.

The weather wasn't great, otherwise the scenery would have been even more beautiful. The Crystal Cable Car offers views of the sea below, but the height is manageable, so it wasn't too scary. There's a park at the top of the mountain, but the climb was too tiring, so we skipped it. The area in the first picture was closed, so we couldn't go there. They even gave us a lollipop.

N Seoul Tower is a must visit in Seoul. The view is spectacular, both from the cable car and the tower. You will regret if you didn't visit. There are several shops and restaurants there so you can spend some time shopping around. Please note thatbthw queue to the cable car can be very long, can last around 45minutes. Opening hours. 🗼 Observatory Deck Weekdays (Monday – Friday): 10:30 AM – 10:30 PM Weekends & Public Holidays: 10:00 AM – 11:00 PM  Last Entry: 30 minutes before closing  🚠 Namsan Cable Car: Daily: 10:00 AM – 11:00 PM. 🌇Best visiting time : 2-3 hours before sunset, wait for sunset and enjoy also the night view.

Fantastic, a place to enjoy and relax. We did have a great time and explore the rides /activities

In the height of summer, Seoul Tower is more tiring with its uphill climb, but less of a hassle waiting for the cable car. It's a must-see attraction for first-time visitors. You can choose whether or not to go up the tower at your own expense; it's similar to the Oriental Pearl Tower in Shanghai. The all-glass bathrooms inside the tower are a major highlight! 😂

Обязательное место к посещению, вы посещаете 100, 99, 98 этажи. Прекрасный вид, там есть кафе лаундж и даже кафе Старбакс. Нам понравилось.

Big, beautiful and bustling! The palace is so spacious with so much to see and wander through. It can take you a couple hours but it’s wonderful and vibrant. I wish there was more historical information but it seems like it is being expanded in some ways. There’s tons of tourists and pretty places to take so much photos. If you wear traditional clothing, you get in for free!

It's a very nice place, and I like that Koreans preserve their history, preserve their houses, and live in them. I recommend not lingering on the main street, but rather, going deeper into the area where you'll find museums and more unique, less touristy places you can stop in and stroll around. But be polite and don't make noise, because that's where people live.
