Stop 2

Jogyesa Buddhist Temple, established in 1935 and located in downtown Seoul, serves as the center of Zen Buddhism in Korea. As you approach from the bustling streets of Jongno towards Anguk Subway Station, the temple unfolds as a peaceful retreat marked by its ancient white pine and 500-year-old locust and baeksong trees at the Daeungjeon, the main temple building. Visitors enter through the "Iljumun," a symbolic gate that divides the mundane world from the sacred realm of Buddha, where they can experience spiritual tranquility and admire the splendid golden statues.

Stop 3 Pass by

After visiting Jogyesa Temple, you will pass by the Presidential Blue House, distinguished by its iconic blue tiles and beautifully set against the backdrop of Mt. Bukak.

Step into the grandeur of Korea’s royal heritage.
Built in 1395, Gyeongbokgung is Seoul’s largest and most iconic palace — once the heart of the Joseon Dynasty.
Here, you can witness the changing of the royal guard ceremony, explore historic architecture, and walk in the footsteps of kings.
Filming locations:
• Kingdom (Netflix) – the hit zombie-sageuk series set in a Joseon-era palace
• The King: Eternal Monarch (SBS/Netflix) – alternate-universe royal palace scenes
• Chicago Typewriter – historical flashbacks filmed on-site
The palace’s elegant courtyards and mountain backdrop have made it a favorite for period dramas and cinematic scenes that blend tradition with fantasy.

Stop 5

Step inside the National Folk Museum of Korea, located within the grounds of Gyeongbokgung Palace, and explore the everyday lives of Korean people throughout history.
Through thousands of artifacts, interactive exhibits, and life-sized replicas, the museum vividly illustrates how Koreans lived, worked, and celebrated across the centuries.
A highlight is the recreated traditional village street, where you can walk through shops and homes from the early 20th century—right at the moment when electricity first entered daily life.
It’s a fascinating way to experience Korea’s cultural heritage and see how tradition shaped the modern nation.

Stop 6

Namsan Hanok Village, located at the base of Namsan Mountain in the heart of Seoul, is a cultural haven that transports visitors back to the Joseon Dynasty. This village is an excellent representation of Korean heritage, showcasing five restored traditional Korean houses, or hanoks, which illustrate the historical architecture of various social classes from the 14th to the 19th century. Nestled within the modern cityscape of Seoul, the village not only offers a tranquil escape from the bustling city life but also provides panoramic views of Namsan Mountain and the surrounding city. This juxtaposition makes Namsan Hanok Village a must-visit for anyone looking to experience Korea's traditional culture while enjoying the natural beauty and historical architecture.
