you can climb up on foot in about 1.5 - 2 hours, from the side of Myeongdong there is a nice village, which is worth a walk. If you have a hard time climbing, it is better to use the funicular. Also, there are almost no kiosks selling water along the way
One of the most famous attraction in Seoul is this park and Seoul Tower on top of it. You can take Namsan Cabel Car to go to the top, return ticket price is around 10$. From top of the mountain, city view is amazing and you can catch good sunset too.

It's worth going~ You need to buy a full-day pass. There is a parade of floats in the evening~ It's beautiful~ Pay attention to sun protection in summer~ Carnivores and herbivores are worth seeing~ You can save time queuing by downloading the app in advance. It's very convenient~ You can get a paper version of the English map at the information center at the entrance~ It doesn't matter if you can speak English, as long as you can see the pictures~
Purchase the ticket with instant confirmation. You only need to scan the QR code at the entrance. Finally got to see the Bao family after so long ❤️❤️❤️

The following is a review of Myeongdong: Advantages - Good shopping experience: This is a paradise for shoppers, bringing together many international brands, Korean local brands and various trendy brands, with a wide variety of goods, including clothing, shoes, cosmetics, accessories and other goods. There are large high-end shopping malls such as New World Department Store and Lotte Department Store, as well as comprehensive shopping centers such as Migliore, and many duty-free shops, with a wide variety of shopping options. - Rich food: you can taste a variety of delicacies, there are authentic Korean traditional dishes such as crab sauce, barbecue, stone pot bibimbap, etc., there are also special snacks such as fried chicken, fried rice cakes, fish cakes, etc., in addition to Western restaurants, fast food restaurants, coffee shops, etc., to meet the taste needs of different people. - Strong cultural atmosphere: Myeongdong Holy Church is the earliest Catholic Church in Korea, with a unique Gothic architectural style, with high historical and cultural value and artistic appreciation. There are also retro neighborhoods such as Tea Cave and Wuqiao Cave Food Culture Street in the surrounding area, full of cultural and artistic atmosphere. Convenient transportation: Located in the center of Seoul, Metro Line 4 Myeongdong Station is directly accessible, and you can directly enter the core area of Myeongdong from multiple exits. There are also many bus lines passing by, which makes it easy for tourists to go to other attractions in Seoul. - Perfect service facilities: most merchants employ Chinese-speaking waiters, and Chinese volunteers on the street, which is convenient for Chinese tourists to ask. There is a police station on Myeongdong Street. If you have any emergency situations such as loss of documents, you can directly ask the police. Banks and currency exchange shops are numerous, which is convenient for tourists to exchange money and handle financial business. Disadvantages - Crowded tourists: As one of Seoul's hottest tourist attractions, Myeongdong attracts a large number of tourists every day, especially during holidays and tourist seasons, the streets are crowded, and often need to queue up when shopping in shopping malls and restaurants, which will affect the experience of playing. - The quality of goods is uneven: some Myeongdong merchants have the phenomenon of selling fake goods, especially some low-priced goods and souvenirs, tourists need to have a certain ability to distinguish to avoid buying fake goods. - Higher prices: Since Myeongdong is a bustling commercial center and the higher rental costs have led to higher prices for some goods and catering relative to other regions, it may be necessary to spend cautiously for tourists with limited budgets.
A lot of halal restaurants around this area, can get crowded at peak times but still a vibe. Better to go shops at other branch instead of myeongdong if want to avoid crowd.

Very entertaining and enjoyable performance. Even without an intermission, the 1.5hrs went by quickly as the show was fast paced and very energetic. Certainly with reserving a night out for this show.
It’s a super fun show. Funny performance for everyone. But the theatre is too small so the seats are very close for sitting.

The palace was built in 1395 (Hongwu, Ming Taizu, 28 years), and has undergone many destruction and reconstruction. The palace is named after the word "Jingfu" in "Jingfu" in "Songs of Songs". The area and regulations of the palace are strictly followed by the patriarchal relationship with the patriarchal state of China. The county palace under the rule of the Prince was built according to the system of the Ming Dynasty palace. All buildings are distinguished from the yellow of the Chinese palace in the color of Danqing. 🪁 On the 50th anniversary of the Korean Guangfu Rehabilitation in 1995, the three governments of Jin Yong demolished the Japanese-occupied buildings on the grounds of restoring their traditional culture and "clearing the symbols of the Japanese rule period", and the original site began a large-scale restoration of the Gyeongboku Palace and its annex buildings. In August 2010, South Korea rebuilt the Guanghua Gate, which was originally called "de-Chineseization" and was restored to a traditional Chinese character plaque.
Walking in the streets of Seoul, Gyeongbokgung Palace is like a shining pearl, quietly telling an ancient story. Stepping into the palace gate, it seems to travel through time and space, and the quaint buildings shine solemnly in the sun.
Walking along the Junghwajeon, every brick and tile carries the weight of history. The cultural relics displayed in the palace silently tell the glory and vicissitudes of the Joseon Dynasty. I stood in front of the palace, looking up at the tall building, and a feeling of awe surged in my heart.
Walking in the garden in the palace, the trees are green and the flowers are blooming. The koi in the pond are leisurely and contented, as if they are also enjoying this quiet time. I strolled along the corridor, admiring the surrounding scenery and feeling the perfect fusion of history and nature.
Gyeongbokgung Palace is not only a palace, but also a witness to a period of history. Here, I seem to see the rise and fall of the Joseon Dynasty, and feel the unique charm of Korean culture. This is an unforgettable trip, which gave me a deeper understanding of Korean history and culture.

nami island is certainly perfect for a day trip or you can also considering mixing with another attraction like us. the ferry ride was extremely comfortable and took only what feels like 5 minutes to arrive at the island. nami island is really big with attractions at almost every point and it feels calming to stroll around the area after a meal. i think it is good for people of all ages as there are very interesting stuff like filming scenes and ostriches.
Cleared instructions was given and safety measures were done pretty well. Only thing it’s the Go-pro 360 view maybe not so clearly explained how use and to take a nice video but ultimately it’s fun and saved the hassle of taking the ferry with long queue to Nami island. Short cut to spend more time at the island.

If you know Itaewon, you will know it. It is only one kilometer away from the US military base, so it is famous for nightclubs. There is basically no one during the day and all shops are closed. Only at night, so if you want to go sightseeing and see the scenery, this place is not suitable. Especially on weekends... Various bars. Many bars start to be crowded around 10 o'clock. So you don't have to go too early, you can find a place to have a drink first. Most of the bars are behind the Hilton Hotel. There are also many address books in the bars. Generally, I will go to 3 bars in one night. Different bars have different music styles and are very cost-effective. There are also many bars with special preferences, such as old people's CD, etc. In short, I wish you all a good time.
Itaewon is good place if you want to find halal food. There has so many Arabs food to choose. If you are alone, better not to come here unless you like wild places.

Absolutely worth going! An amazing experience for ladies that every traveler to Seoul should book. I would definitely recommend booking vip or even vvip seats since that would allow you to have the best experience possible.
The location is right in the middle, the viewing experience is great, the segments are interesting, and most importantly, the boys are all very handsome! ! Come and see it! ! !
