    The most visited attractions in Seoul are its palaces. Gyeongbokgung, the main palace, and Changdeokgung, with its beautiful Secret Garden, are the two most popular. Lucky for busy travelers, the two are located almost next to one another. Start off at Gyeongbokgung Palace and travel back in time to the prosperous Joseon Dynasty. The palace is open during all four seasons and a must-visit when in town.

The traditional village features about 900 traditional Korean hanok houses with lovely shops, cafés, restaurants, and teahouses. Cha Masineun Tteul, for example, is a lovely building on a hill on one side of Bukchon. The name literally translates to “The Garden Where Tea Is Drunk” and allows visitors to enjoy a splendid view of the area while sipping on a hot drink.
