Seoul, a bustling metropolis of over 11 million residents, is the perfect vacation destination for both families and individuals alike. A perfect mixture of ancient Korean tradition, unlimited shopping, and modern technological marvels await the anxious traveler. Newcomers to the city will find that a map will be very useful when attempting to locate all of the available Seoul activities.

The War Memorial features a number of exhibits, memorials, and antique military equipment that offer a unique learning experience for everyone.

Continue your historical trip and head to one of the more popular religious local spots, the Bongeunsa Temple. This Buddhist temple, which dates back hundreds of years, is a great place to learn about the country's rich religious history while enjoying a quiet, relaxing atmosphere. This temple is one of the top attractions in Seoul because the facility allows guests to stay overnight for a small fee.

Because Korea is historically a Buddhist nation, Seoul is home to a large number of temples. Aside from temples, breathtaking palaces can be seen alongside towering skyscrapers. The 600 year old Changdeokgung Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is featured on many Seoul tours and a must-visit for every tourist. Sit in the palace gardens and enjoy the well-preserved architecture which has stood the test of time.
