A Week in Seoul: Exploring the Hidden Gems of South Korea
Maryam Zaidi
South Korea has always been one of my favourite countries that I've ever been to, and I will always have a soft spot for this country.
Seoul has amazing things to do and see, from ancient palaces to modern skyscrapers, traditional markets to trendy boutiques, and mouthwatering street food and restaurants in alleyways frequented only by the locals.
Here is my one-week itinerary in Seoul. I've stayed in 3 different hotels during my stay, alternating between Myeongdong, Dongdaemun and Mapo. It allowed me to discover plenty of things in each neighbourhood. And I have also included some tours that I went on, which was incredibly amazing!
I hope this itinerary will help you find your way to the best places in Seoul, just like I did and fell in love with this city all over again.
