N Seoul Tower

Wondering where to visit during Cherry Blossom 🌸 season in Korea? Here’s my brief itinerary and sharing, hope it’s useful for everyone 🫶 On Day 1, we kick started our day at Yeouido Hangang Park, where cherry blossoms line the Han River, creating a stunning backdrop for a leisurely stroll or a picnic. We were there during the weekend to prevent crowds! 🤣 * Based on experience* As we were not able to get any good photos during the weekend during our last trip here! ( Weekday + Early Morning 💯) We then headed to Tosokchon Samgyetang for their famous ginseng chicken soup. This restaurant is housed in a traditional Korean building and is renowned for its nourishing and flavorful samgyetang. It was so good especially during cold weather 🙌 Tosokchon Samgyetang 📍5 Jahamun-ro 5-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul) We also explored Gyeongbokgung Palace, the largest of the Five Grand Palaces built during the Joseon Dynasty. The palace grounds are adorned with cherry blossom trees, adding to its majestic beauty. On the next day, we hiked up to N Seoul Tower in Namsan Park for breathtaking views of Seoul blanketed in cherry blossoms. The tower offers panoramic vistas of the city, and during cherry blossom season, the surrounding area is awash in pink hues. Can you imagine how beautiful it is? 🌸🌸🌸 We then explored the bustling streets of Myeongdong and indulge in street food from various vendors. Myeongdong is famous for its vibrant atmosphere and diverse culinary offerings, making it the perfect spot for a quick and flavorful lunch. This place is a MUST, if you’re a big fan of local street food 🥘 On the third day, we explored the Seokchon Lake Park, where cherry blossoms frame the picturesque lake, creating a postcard-worthy scene. Take a leisurely stroll along the paths or rent a paddleboat to enjoy the scenery from the water. After exploring around we went to Gogung for out favorite bibimbap, a traditional Korean rice dish. This restaurant is renowned for its bibimbap, which is served in a hot stone bowl and topped with an array of fresh vegetables and savory sauces. 💯💯💯 Gogung 📍33-9 Myeongdong 10-gil, Jung-gu, Seoul). We also visited Lotte World Tower, one of Seoul's iconic landmarks, and ascend to the observation deck for panoramic views of the city adorned in cherry blossoms. The tower stands as a symbol of Seoul's modernity and offers unparalleled vistas of the surrounding landscape. On the last day in Seoul, we had our dinner at the Han River Cruise Terminal before embarking on a Han River cruise. As we glide along the river, we were able to see the cherry blossoms that line the riverbanks, creating a magical ambiance 🌸🌸🌸 📍Han River Cruise Terminal 290 Yeouidong-ro, Yeongdeungpo-gu, Seoul Han River Cruise then marked as the last place that we’ve visited in Seoul 🌸 It was an unforgettable experience and we all love it 🥰 #cherryblossom2024 #vacation #shorttrip

Have you really been to Korea without visiting Namsan Seoul Tower? The panoramic view of Seoul is simple breathtaking. There were cool exhibitions before getting on the elevator! Me and my friend opted for a scenic hike and it was a good decision as we saw a trail of cherry blossom trees. Else, you can also take a cable car up or a bus up! Go at sunset timing to enjoy both sunset and night view. The love locks are outside and if you are going with your partner, be sure to put one too 💖 Tip: Buy your observatory tickets online to save $$ #koreatrip

We took bus from Jangchungdan park’ bus station to namsan tower. They stopped us at the foot of the mountain, so we had to do a little hiking to the namsan tower.

#cherryblossom2024 The Seoul Tower in Nanshan is such a classic spot and the southern mountains in autumn are truly stunning! 🍂 On both sides of the road, you'll find lovely light pink cherry blossom trees, perfect for both exercise and enjoyment, especially when combined with the South Mountain Pagoda. The photos you can capture there are truly amazing! The cherry blossoms have a short peak time, usually just about a week, so it's important to make the most of this romantic sight. 🌸 You can opt for a cable car or bus to reach Seoul Tower in Nanshan, but I highly recommend walking up the mountain! The scenery along the way, from the mountain to the road, is absolutely beautiful, offering plenty of photo opportunities. 🚠🌳 Starting from Exit 3 of Mingdong Subway Station, you'll find Manga Street, filled with adorable manga characters and graffiti. Follow the path up to Nanshan, where you'll discover numerous hiking trails for climbing. 🏞️

#gohiking Address - 105 Namsangongwon-gil, Yongsan-gu, Seoul, South Korea Highlights - Autumn foliage, N Seoul Tower A morning hike/walk @ Namsan Park to enjoy the autumn foliage, beautiful views/skyline and the N Seoul Tower.

There were still some cherry blossoms left, so I could enjoy the cherry blossom viewing 🌸 (I visited on April 16th!!)

#koreatrip Personally recommend to visit this N-Seoul Tower by walking instead of cable car (for youngster-mid age only). Reason being you will be able to enjoy more sight seeing by foot, enjoy the peaceful mountain view, a lot of autumn flower and trees, and lastly the chilly weather! There are restaurants and cafes up to the tower ground floor, do stay there for at least 1 hour to fully enjoy the view and blend into the nature! Psst! Remember to wear sport shoe if you are going up by foot.

#cherryblossom2024 The Seoul Tower in Nanshan is a very old tourist attraction and also southern mountains in autumn are really beautiful! On both sides of the road are light pink cherry blossom 🌸 trees, which can exercise your body and enjoy your eyes, especially the combination of South Mountain Pagoda and cherry blossoms. The photos are amazing The best viewing time for cherry blossoms is limited, usually only about a week. Everyone should seize the time to see the romantic cherry blossom You can take a cable car or a bus 🚌 to Seoul Tower in Nanshan, but it is still recommended to walk up the mountain! During this season, there are beautiful scenery along the way from mountain to road, and any place is easy to take photos 📸 📍From Exit 3 of Mingdong Subway Station, there is Manga Street, with cute manga characters and graffiti along the way. Follow up to Nanshan, where there are many hiking trails for climbing #korea #seoul #ntower #mytravelhacks #historicallandmarks #localguides #familytrip

Several years ago, when I first came to Korea, I went to the Seoul Tower to see the night view. This time, I wanted to see the night view again, and after much thought, there was no better place than the N Seoul Tower. 🔺Route: Coming out of the Myeongdong subway station, follow the mural street uphill. After passing the Namsan pork cutlet street, you will see the Namsan Tower cable car station. Here, you can buy a round-trip ticket and then wait to board. The cable car can take you directly to a place close to the base of the tower. ⚠️If you simply want to see the night view, then this is enough, and there is no need to buy a ticket to go up the tower, because from here you can see the night view of Myeongdong and many parts of Seoul. ⚠️If it is your first time in Korea and you want to go up the tower, you can directly buy a ticket at the window under the Seoul Tower. Then, you will be given a number with many digits, which is the interval for your queue to go up the tower. The entrance will call out numbers. The area on top of the Seoul Tower is not very large, and it also takes some time to queue up and down the stairs, so if you just want to see the night view, you actually don't need to buy a ticket; you can just watch from below.

📍South Korea🇰🇷Seoul ⚠️1⃣️8⃣️🅿️Photo overload warning‼️ Each one is a classic‼️ Seoul Travel Guide ‼️ 🌟Pre-travel preparation: Passport, ID card, Korean won, phone card, transportation card, charger, adapter, clothes and shoes (be sure to bring thick ones, otherwise the cold rain in Korea can really freeze you), toothbrush, cotton swabs, comb, etc. 🏠Accommodation: Recommend staying near Everland, there are many newly opened guesthouses with reasonable prices, close to Everland, and you can take the subway back to the guesthouse after playing. 🌼Tourist spots: You must visit Seoul Everland🎪 Address: Green Area, Cheoin District, Yongin-si, Gyeonggi-do. You can get there by taking the subway green line🚇 Next to Everland is Caribbean Bay Water World🌊 It's really tiring to play for a day, bring snacks, and it is recommended to wear long-sleeved swimsuits🩱 to prevent sunburn. Dongdaemun Market is suitable for buying clothes and accessories, but you have to bargain! Bargain hard! The uncle will give you a high price because you are a Chinese tourist, you should say 'no no no' or directly say 'cheaper'! Start bargaining from 10,000 won, you can usually cut it down to about 3,000-5,000 won, then ➕ shipping costs to mail it directly to your home💰 Gangnam District in Seoul is suitable for buying high-end skincare products, but it might not necessarily be cheaper than other duty-free shops, but the selection is complete! You can buy whatever you want, and just putting together an order can cost thousands of yuan~ Luxury brand stores are also here, if you want to buy Hermès you can try your luck~ Maybe they will just walk in and give you a bag👜 ‼️‼️Important: Definitely do not trust the street brokers‼️ They will take you to expensive barbecue restaurants or other shops, it is recommended to download an app and directly search for nearby shops, high-rated ones just walk in and eat! Basically no service charge~ Also, do not exchange Korean won in Myeongdong! The exchange rate is super low! You can exchange it in Dongdaemun or Gangnam District before going to Myeongdong to spend~ Also, download an app called 'Subway', similar to China's Alipay, you can use it for subway and bus rides, it is recommended to download it🚇🚌 📷Seoul photography spots recommendation: 1⃣️N Seoul Tower: There is a small path leading to a small garden with a lawn and a little fountain at the bottom of the tower, sitting on the bench you can see the N Seoul Tower and the sky. 2⃣️Gwangjang Market: It is one of the largest traditional markets in Seoul, with lots of snacks and souvenirs. 3⃣️Han River Citizens Park: It is the largest open civic park in Korea, along the Han River. Long-term updates on global travel guides, global scenic photography spots for check-ins, essential for your social circle, take you on a global tour without leaving your house🌍, see you next time👋
