Must Visits
Gyeongbokgung Palace

Gyeongbokgung Palace, built in 1395, is Seoul's largest and most majestic palace, standing as a captivating testament to Korea's architectural brilliance and royal heritage.

Exploring the palace allows one to immerse themselves in the rich tapestry of Korean history, making it a must-visit destination for those seeking a deeper understanding of the country's cultural legacy.

Yeouido Hangang Park
@nextstopkorea
Yeouido Hangang Park, situated along the Han River in Seoul, is a picturesque urban park with expansive green spaces, cycling paths, and recreational facilities. Among young Koreans it is the most popular spot for picnics, leisure activities, and enjoying stunning views of the river and the N Seoul Tower or Bukhansan.
You can get a picnic set at Yeouinaru Station, have Ramyeon from the Convenience Store or rent a bike for a little bike ride.
To rent a bike you have 2 options:
1) You can use the Seoul Public Bike System "Ttareungi". I would recommend taking the bike along the river to go to Banpo Bridge.
2) Rent a bike at the Yeouinaru Square (but keep in mind you usually have to return them at the same place)
Also please note, that the "I SEOUL U" Sign in one picture is not there anymore as the city changed it's slogan to "Seoul My Soul" and therefore sadly removed all those signs.

When I made the move from Germany to Korea in 2021, my life took a thrilling turn. From day one, I've been sharing this amazing journey with my Instagram community, as "Next Stop: Korea."

But hey, as much as I adore Seoul, I'm all about encouraging travelers to explore beyond the city limits. Think the beaches of Busan, the coastal charm of Gangneung, the culture explosion in Jeonju, and the paradise vibes of Jeju – I've been lucky enough to explore over 40 of these fantastic places, and my Korean adventure wishlist is still going strong! :D
Fast-forward to 2023, and I officially became a Content Creator for the Korea Tourism Organization and also got the title of “Global Seoulmate” - an Ambassador for the city of Seoul. It has made me even more excited to share the wonders of this incredible country!
