Gyoung Bok Palace is one of main attraction for foreigner in Seoul. Also it is must-see course for the kid, because of the school work. That is one of Korean symbol. During the old dynasty (Chosun : 1392~1910), it was the loyal palace. King lived and ruled here.





Honestly, If you visit China or Japan before, you can not find very big difference between them. But still it's recommendable place. Because you can visit major Korean heritage and tourist place nearby here.

Insadong is one of main attraction in Seoul.

This street fills with many traditional stuffs including tea, clothes, calligraphy, woodcrafts, and so on. If you want to buy some Korean cultural stuffs then Insadong is best place. When a Korean goes abroad and prepare to buy some souvenior for their foreign partner, then Korean also visit Insadong. Insadong has also good Korean foods, gallery, antique shop. You can also find western style wine bar.

The price range in Insadong is wide but generally speaking it is expensive. Be careful when you are going to eat traditional Korean food. Some Korean restaurant looks small and dirty but the food will be very expensive. (starts at $30 per person) I will introduce some nice Korean restaurant later on.

Insadong is located near by metro station Anguk (Line 3), and Chongro 3Ga (Line 1, 3, 5 transit). After getting off the metro, if you can't find where is Insadong, just catch one young people and ask'em "I-N-S-A-D-O-N-G" :)
