    The palace was our last stop before our flight. So we had to check out of our hotel and had medium sized (25 inch) luggages with us. Fret not. There are luggage storage facilities at the Heungnyemun Gate.

    We arrived in time for the Changing of Guard Ceremony at 10am. It lasted about 20minutes or so. Then we joined a chinese tour (free of charge) at 10.30am. The tour was insightful as we learned more of korean culture and appreciated the architecture.

    This museum is so well done and is free. We spent over 3 hours reading and looking at everything. It would be great for children too because there's tons of vehicles to look at and a children's museum.

    It is a historical place where you can see Korean history in one place. If you are interested in Korean history, I recommend you to visit

    Different experience for the family. Nice architecture and gardens. We enjoyed the walk. It is cold in December, so be prepared.

    Like many others, I took the bus to the top. I didn't see the cable car running. Few places to eat and many views without having to go to the top if you choose not too. The view from the top was nice, even on a foggy day.

    A breathtaking experience. I recommend going with a professional that knows the place but it is so worth the walk. Not fit for disabled persons however

    Barrio simpático para una caminata. No es céntrico, pero se llega fácil en transporte público (el sistema de transporte público en Seúl es impresionantemente bueno). // Nice neighborhood for a walk. Not central, but easy to reach by public transportation (the public transportation system in Seoul is impressively good).

    Nice area with a lot of side streets to explore for shopping and also eating. Nice shops with various cultural items for sale, embroidery, jewelry, traditional clothing as well as a few street food vendors. There are plenty of places to eat scattered throughout. It is worth a visit.

    Very nice walk along the river, and looks lovely at night as well. Very peaceful and lots to see. Great even on a cold winters day
