About Seoel

Koninklijke paleizen en hanok-dorpen staan tussen glazen torens, bruisende markten en straten vol late eetkraampjes in Seoul, de hoofdstad van Zuid-Korea.

Vijf grote paleizen uit de Joseon-dynastie sieren de stad, aangevoerd door Gyeongbokgung, met zijn kleurrijke wisseling van de wacht, en Changdeokgung, waarvan de Geheime Tuin een serene uitwijkplek is. Daartussen bewaart het Bukchon Hanok Village traditionele huizen met pannendak aan hellende steegjes, en Insadong staat bekend om theehuizen, galeries en ambachten.
