10 Things to do in Gangnam-gu That You Shouldn't Miss
Seoul is the business and cultural hub of South Korea, where skyscrapers tower over Buddhist temples. Take it all in from the N Seoul Tower, built atop a peak in Namsan Park. The teahouses and shops of Insadong give you a taste of Korean flavor, which you can further experience with a visit to the grounds and museums of Gyeongbokgung. UNESCO World Heritage Site Changdeokgung Palace is a fine example of authentic ancient architecture.

Seoul Escape is probably my favorite escape room in Korea. Their hints and clues (which are written in both english and korean) are so easy to understand and their rooms are always so much fun and super interactive! I’ll definitely come back again with more friends to finish season 3.

It’s hard to believe that this large, beautiful Buddhist temple is situated in the middle of a bustling metropolis. It’s impossible not to be moved by the beauty and serenity of this enchanting temple. You can even stay overnight for a fee.

The temple looks boring from the front. Walk further in towards the back and u will see a kind of little forest or park. The autumn foliage is simply gorgeous and out of this world. this place is an easy 500m walk from Coex Mall so u can easily combine this with a visit to Starfield Library and a meal in Coex Mall.

I have visited 2 times in 3 years and had the good fortune to meet some of the great staff that represent TKD in Korea and in the development of the sport. I was presented with a visitor certificate on arrival and hosted through a short tour. The museum was very interesting and my host was able to translate some very interesting elements of the sports history for me. The area also hosts a number of TKD stores and you can pick up good quality gear and training accessories. If visiting, plan to attend on any day except Monday, 9which is the TKD demonstration teams day off).

This place has got to be one of the most lovely and unexpected spaces to find in a shopping mall. Located in the huge mall on the main Gangnam boulevards, this Staffield Library is the focal point of one section of the mall, towering nearly 3 storey. The cafe located amongst all the volume of beautiful book shelves on their upper floor (on top of the escalators) serves excellent cakes, coffee and has an outdoor space to catch some sun on cool winter days.
