What you can expect

Tour creates the pleasure of discovering unique charm of Korea's Confucian culture!

Tour is designed for you to explore Korean architecture, mythological symbols, Confucian culture and history at Gyeongbokgung and Bukchon Hanok Maeul, and the Korean people’s traditional life, rituals, customs and culture at National Folk Museum and Korean best art relics at National Museum.

Alongside, you can experience the taste of Korean traditional food in Insadong street, or the joy of bustling atmosphere of traditional market at Gwangjang Market, and can enjoy amazing panoramic view of Seoul from tower of Namsan Mountain, and the best beautiful Korea's traditional arts at National Museum of Korea. Eventually, your trip to Seoul will be impressive and memorable in their life.

I am the only tour guide in Korea who introduces Korean traditional culture, based on Confucianism.

Gyeongbokgung is the most beautiful place and must-see architecture in Korea. Gyeongbokgung was built in 1395 as the grandest main palace and monumental architecture that represents Confucianism, national ideology of Joseon Dynasty, and it is the only palace built on north-south linear structure and the harmony of Feng Shui and Yin-Yang, standard palace structure of Confucianism.

The National Folk Museum of Korea illustrates traditional Korean life, using reconstructed environments to reproduce authentic cultural scenes. Folk Museum offers a beautiful and fascinating glimpse into the core of Korean traditional culture, featuring seasonal activities and the four major life cycles, all deeply rooted in the Confucian principles of the Joseon Dynasty.

Lunch at a restaurant in Insadong street: Korean traditional Bibimbab(mixed rice in iron pot) or set-menu with over 10 side dishes. Or as alternatice, Gwangjang market is the oldest traditional Korean market, where we can experience traditional Korean food at food stands.

Namsan mt. is situated in the centre of Seoul, and N Seoul Tower, with panoramic view of Seoul. Visitors can see stunning view of Seoul at N-Seoul Tower.

Moving and tour to Sureymun Gate/South Gate of Seoul Fortress Wall, that is Korea’s national treasure #1, and walk through Namdaemun market that is biggest traditional market in Korea.

National Museum of Korea is the largest and beautiful museum in Korea, showing best art relics of Korean culture. National Museum of Korea shows best part of Korean traditional art, such as golden crowns & ornaments of Silla Dynasty, jade green colour Goryeo Cheongja or Goryeo Celadon embodying aristocratic Buddhism culture and Joseon Baekja-pure white porcelain.

As an alternative of National Museum, Hongdae is vibrant and trendy area featuring young & modern culture, full of boutique shops, cafes and restaurants.
