Changdeokgung Palace
Changdeokgung Palace, built shortly after Gyeongbokgung in 1405, served as the primary residence for many Joseon kings and remains the best-preserved of Seoul’s five remaining royal palaces. Designated a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site in 1997, Changdeokgung is celebrated for its harmonious blend with the natural environment, featuring a public palace area, the royal family residence, and a beautifully landscaped rear garden. On our tour, you will enter through the historic Donhwamun Gate, restored after being destroyed in 1592, and walk across the ancient Geumcheongyo Bridge, the oldest in Seoul. Highlights include Injeongjeon Hall, the grand setting for significant state banquets, and Huijeongdang Hall, the royal bedchamber, which was reconstructed with unique Western influences like glass windows and chandeliers after a fire, offering a distinct contrast to the traditional Korean architecture found throughout the rest of the palace.
1 hour

Insadong, nestled near Gyeongbok Palace, is a vibrant hub of traditional Korean culture, renowned since the Joseon Dynasty for its array of antique shops. Today, it draws tourists with its traditional tea houses, craft shops, and art galleries, offering a firsthand experience of Korea's cultural heritage. Particularly popular among international visitors, Insadong's main street and its charming alleys are lined with stalls selling ceramics and local delicacies, creating a lively atmosphere where friendly locals engage with guests amidst the festive environment.

Namdaemun Market
Namdaemun Market is a large traditional market in Seoul, South Korea. It is located next to Namdaemun, the main southern gate to the old city. The market is among the oldest extant markets in Korea, having opened during the Joseon period in 1414.
The market survived a number of attempts by the Japanese colonial government to shut it down. It was destroyed a number of times in the 20th century by accidental fires and during the 1950–1953 Korean War. Each time the market was destroyed, it was nearly completely rebuilt from scratch to the roughly the same size and status it had previously operated under.
It offers a vast array of goods including clothing for men, women, and children at competitive prices, serving both retail and wholesale customers.

We stayed here for a friends wedding and felt like royalty. The service was impeccable and the grounds were clean. I loved how a boat took you to your hotel room! The outdoor showers were very beautiful and added to a rustic ambience. I enjoyed laying down on the roof deck too. This place would be perfect for a honeymoon or just a very relaxing holiday with your partner. The food was fantastic
