You might think that you won’t find any monuments in such a modern metropolis. Nothing further from the truth. Gyeongbokgung Palace, Changdeokgung Palace, N Seoul Tower, Jogyesa Buddhist Temple, or Namsangol Hanok Village – these are just a few historically significant spots in the city. Another place worth a visit is Children’s Grand Park, a huge entertainment complex for the entire family. It offers a number of free attractions appealing to the youngsters (i.a. zoo, playgrounds, museum, and open-air restaurants).

Food in Seoul – served either at the restaurants or on the streets – is richly varied. Korean cuisine is a mixture of spicy, sweet, and sour flavors, so even those who are not into Asian food should find here something to suit their taste. Regardless of whether we eat at the fancy restaurant or food stall at Gwangjang Market, we will always get fresh products. The staple food for the majority of South Koreans is rice and kimchi (salted and fermented napa cabbage). In Seoul, it is as popular as ever to go to the restaurant to prepare your own food. “Cook-it-yourself” restaurant with the grill in the middle of the table is a must-go when you visit the city. Recommended restaurants are, e.g., Maple Tree House Itaewon and Yeonnamseo Sikdang where you can try grilled meat, fish, and seafood. But if you’re looking for more sophisticated cuisine, go to Jungsik or La Seine restaurants.
