Description
Given the fact that there are two parts of Korea, north and south, travellers can expect a lot to see and experience. Choosing the most ideal Korea tour packages will ensure that travellers get to enjoy everything that this Asian nation has to offer. This country has everything, ranging from nature to exciting cities, old world monuments to buildings that define cutting edge.
While the capital city of South Korea, Seoul, is always on the list of all travellers arriving in this country, there are several other destinations that should be visited. Some of the other important cities include Busan, Chuncheon, Jeonju, Jeju Island and of course, Pyongyang, which is the capital of North Korea.
Most holidays in Korea tend to start in the city of Seoul, which is truly the soul of this country. This city embodies how old traditions can be maintained harmoniously with the fast emerging trends. So, while there is UNESCO World Heritage Changdeokgung Palace, there are also ultramodern shopping malls like the COEX Mall, which is Asia’s largest underground mall. Similarly, there is Bukchon Hanok-gil, an area filled with traditional homes and craft workshops. On the other hand, Samcheongdong-gil is an alleyway that is stuffed with modern art galleries and cafes.
Busan is another city that figures in the itinerary of a lot of travellers vacationing in Korea. Located right next to the water, this city is quieter than Seoul and offers travellers the chance to relax. Even though the Haeundae Beach might always seem packed, tourists will be able to find a place to stretch themselves out. Alternatively, they can head to the Heosimcheong Spa, where they can find tranquillity.
Jeonju and Jeju Island are two places that should not be missed to ensure that tourists have wonderful memories. Travellers opting for a tour package to Korea will fall in love with both these places because not only are they charming, but also dotted with appealing tourist attractions. Jeju Island is actually a volcanic island and a protected site, whereas Jeonju is a beautiful site where tourists get an insight into how life used to be in the days gone by. Irrespective of which part of Korea tourists choose to explore, it is most certain that they will go back with wonderful memories and a desire to return as soon as possible. This is one destination that will keep reappearing on holiday lists of a number of travellers.
