Things to do in Seodaemun Prison History Hall

I’m especially glad I included this tour in my visit to Seoul. It offered a different perspective on the city and introduced me to an important part of Korea’s recent history. Exploring the places associated with its path toward democracy added depth to my trip and gave me plenty to think about afterward. Gina made the experience especially memorable. Her explanations helped me follow the sequence of events and understand how the different locations fitted into the bigger story. I enjoyed discovering the significance of places I might have overlooked and seeing the city through a different lens. The subject matter was sometimes heavy, but that was also what made the tour worthwhile. It invited reflection and helped me appreciate the people and struggles behind modern Korea. For anyone who enjoys learning about the destinations they visit, this tour is a rewarding way to spend time in Seoul. Many thanks to Gina for guiding us through such an important chapter of the country’s history.

Such a fun and unique experience. Lee was a fantastic teacher and made the activity fun and friendly. Highly recommend as a chance to make your own souvenir to take home as a memory

Awaresome experience on the pub crawl on Thursday in Hongdae.i did the same pub crawl last year. Our hosts were great. Visited 3 bars plus one bar that does karoke on a Thursday night. highly recommend to do a pub crawl while in Seoul

we had a smooth experience from cable car ticketing to riding it, and to the observatory. we landed just a few steps up to the viewing deck at the foot of the tower. we were lucky to catch the guard show at the beacon hill siye. tho i missed out on the info that were was a bus to and from the cable car station, so do ask ahead of time to save you from the uphill walk.

It was such an amazing experience, it is must activity in Seoul, the hosts are warm Isabella and Polly they make you fit right in. Its fun with all the games and pubs and they take really good care of you. Thank you Isabella and Polly for a wonderful night out in Seoul.

This was my second time on this balloon ride. My first time I went during the day but this time I went at night with my boyfriend and it was even more beautiful. the view is breathtaking and I definitely recommend trying this out if you can!

Dongdaemun Sparex is the best! It's affordable, clean, spacious, and comfortable. The location is also incredibly easy to find. Dongdaemun Design Plaza is right across the street. You can easily find it by taking the elevator down to the third basement floor of the building. They don't provide shampoo, conditioner, body wash, or scrubbing towels, so it's a good idea to bring your own. If you forget, they sell them at the entrance, which is convenient. For women, mugwort steaming is highly recommended! It costs 2,000 yen. It feels incredibly good and makes you sweat a lot. After that, getting a body scrub is the best! On the fourth basement floor, there's also a food court, a jjimjilbang (Korean sauna), and a relaxation area where you can unwind. Going in the morning is recommended as it's less crowded.

You can pick up your Discover Seoul Pass at Incheon Airport Terminal 2 (T2) on the third floor, at a store with a blue sign that says "TRAVEL MATE & BOOK STORE." This store is very close to the tax refund kiosks, Shake Shack, and Paris Baguette bakery. You can use these landmarks and store signs to find it. Once you enter the "TRAVEL MATE & BOOK STORE," you'll see a counter on the right-hand side near the entrance, but that's not the one. You need to walk to a very small counter on the left-hand side in the middle of the store. Give the QR code to the staff, and they will give you your Discover Seoul Pass. This time, I bought the 24-hour pass. On the first day, I went to the COEX Aquarium in the afternoon and N Seoul Tower in the evening. On the second day, I spent the entire day at Lotte World. It was very cost-effective, and I highly recommend purchasing it.

The place was really calm and peaceful while the teacher was very patient and helpful throughout the whole process. There are many colorful pieces and using the different shapes made from abalone shell was really interesting.
