2 weeks in Seoul

hi! i think it would be nice to go to Gyeongbokgung during the new year.

because there are korea traditional events.

Well, I'd definitely spend some time at Insadong - it's a very cool area. I also would suggest taking a quick trip down to Busan (it's less than three hours on the KTX train). And definitely check out the jim jil bang, which are the Korean spas. It's going to be chilly, but Korean food is good for staying warm. There are all sorts of old temples and palaces to check out, too - but they're outdoor, so prepare to be cold.

Hi Andrea, if you're going to be there two weeks, a day trip to the Folk Museum is worthwhile. But bundle up if you're going in February!

Try out the free Korean traditional costumes at the tourist infomation center if at angkuk station in Seoul if you go by individual coz they dont accept tour group. Sokcho fishing village and Seoraksan National Park (Namseorak) Soreksan national park are nice. It's only 3 hours away from Seoul. Visit the 38 millitally zone between south and north Korea. You can get help with the booking from staff if you stay at the hostel. Fix the date and book in advance. The Mai Mountain in Jeonju is nice. Better get the mountain name written in Korean if you take the local bus. Gyeonju is rich in history. I highly recommend it.
