I want to visit Korea: a first Seoul trip in 3 days

Group palace sights, a K-culture experience and Gangnam into three manageable days, including the route back to your stay.

Choose between filming-related landmarks and K-culture experiences. These places do not promise a chance to meet actors or idols.

Recognize kimchi, Korean barbecue, ramyeon and tteokbokki by their pictures and Korean names. Check spice, ingredients and prices before ordering.

Choose your city and dates, then check the low, high, rain and wind. This guide is not a live forecast.

Your first day in Korea, one moment at a time: immigration, bags, a message home, money, bus or train, and your stay. Choose the step you need.

Check age, nationality and immigration permission first. Tourist entry must not be treated as permission to work. Budget without assuming earnings.

Identify the place and city, then choose your starting point. 500 m is a nearby-search range, not the distance to every destination.

For a first trip, review the itinerary, accommodation age rules and contact plan with your guardian.
