10 Things to do in Nowon-gu That You Shouldn't Miss

June 30, 2021 Marissa Gamble

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.

Surak Mountain

Reviewed By EvaW145 - Seoul, South Korea

I enjoy climbing/hiking up the mountains of Korea, and Surak Mountain (Suraksan) has excellent views. The climb is good exercise, but not overly taxing. If the weather is nice, you'll see a lot of other hikers. I highly recommend.
