Flights to Seoul
Seoul is the capital of South Korea, officially called the Republic of Korea. The greater metropolitan area of Seoul, which includes the city of Incheon and the province of Gyeonggi, is home to nearly half the country’s population. Located on the Han River, the city is surrounded by mountains and hilly terrain.
Founded 2,000 years ago, this cosmopolitan city is a fascinating landscape that blends ancient Buddhist temples, palaces, and fortresses with eye-popping futuristic skyscrapers, bridges, and towers. This mash-up of past and present creates an exciting energy for exploring Seoul’s many intriguing sites.
Check out spectacular Banpo Bridge with its rainbow-colored waterfall and the jaw-dropping Lotte World Tower, a 123-floor supertall skyscraper shaped like a rocket. Then go tour Gyeongbokgung, a royal palace from the 14th century, and peruse Namdaemun Market, a jam-packed marketplace of 10,000 stores that dates back to the 1400s.
And whatever you do, be sure to save plenty of time to enjoy the cuisine, from street food to fine dining establishments. This is your chance to experience truly authentic Korean barbecue and so much more.
