A short walk around Myeongdong

Use this short plan between appointments or before returning to your hotel. Browse one part of Myeongdong, then walk toward Namdaemun Market for a small meal or snack. It is a focused central-Seoul outing, so leave Namsan for a separate visit.

A slower day at the National Museum

Seoul · 180 min

A slower day at the National Museum

Choose two or three permanent galleries rather than trying to see every object. Stay in one museum, take seated breaks and finish with a meal. This reduces transfers but does not mean no walking: the building is large. The permanent collection has free admission; special exhibitions can cost extra.
