Cemeteries probably aren't the first thing that springs to mind when it comes to tourist attractions, but they can reveal a great deal about a place. Wander around Uireung for some fascinating clues to the past.
This burial ground is on the to-do lists of many travelers to Seongbuk-gu. But Uireung isn't the area's only drawcard. Gyeongbokgung Palace, Dongdaemun History and Culture Park, and N Seoul Tower are some other interesting attractions nearby.
