Overview

Seoul is a city where ancient and modern harmonize: from the splendid Joseon palaces like Gyeongbokgung, Changdeokgung to the dazzling glass skyscrapers in Gangnam. The Han River runs through the city, creating promenades, parks, and bridges lit up with sparkling lights at night. When dawn breaks, soft light shines through traditional tiled roofs, casting over ancient stones and trees, creating a serene and peaceful scene. At sunset, the sky shifts to shades of purple and orange, streetlights illuminate along Insadong, Myeongdong, Cheonggyecheon – creating an atmosphere that is both romantic and vibrant. Seoul is a place where you can feel the pulse of history, culture, and innovation – a city that is both enchanting and full of youth.
