"If you’re looking for a local gem with no tourists you’ll have to check out Ganghwa Island. The 5th largest island in South Korea and home to a lot of hidden gems. There's also a great underrated viewing spot on the island to see North Korea. How to get here from Seoul? You can take a bus from Seoul to Ganghwa Island (Ganghwa Terminal) and then rent a taxi to the location. I recommend using KakaoTaxi to call a taxi or you can find one outside the bus terminal. "
