Fünf große Paläste der Joseon-Dynastie zieren die Stadt, allen voran der Gyeongbokgung mit seiner farbenfrohen Wachablösung und der Changdeokgung, dessen Geheimer Garten eine ruhige Zuflucht ist. Dazwischen bewahrt das Hanok-Dorf Bukchon traditionelle Häuser mit Ziegeldächern an abschüssigen Gassen, und Insadong ist bekannt für Teehäuser, Galerien und Kunsthandwerk.
