Seoul, South Korea, is truly an amazing city to visit! It’s modern, easy to navigate and there’s little something everyone will enjoy. The Seoul subway system makes it easy to get around town and discover exactly what the giant city has to offer.

Surrounded by Japan and China, Seoul and South Korea sometimes doesn’t get all the attention is deserves . Korea is home to a unique culture, cuisine and a fascinating history. If you ever have the chance to visit Seoul, you’ll have a great time!

I traveled to Seoul Korea and was able to do all kinds of things, but I’ve narrowed this list down to twenty five of the best things to do in Seoul – of course there are other things as well but this list is just the beginning and intended to get your ideas and travel imagination flowing!
