This tour begins with a stroll through the quaint buildings of Changdeokgung Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and continues with an elegant route connecting Bukchon Hanok Village, adorned with endless tiled roofs, and the art district of Insadong. In the morning, we'll leisurely explore Injeongjeon Hall and Nakseonjae Hall, both of which embody the elegance of the Joseon Dynasty, before moving on to Bukchon and exploring the Hanok Cultural Street, a beautiful blend of past and present. Here, in a unique space where 1930s hanoks and modern architecture meet, we savor Korean tea and scents, moving beyond simply viewing the past to experience a contemporary interpretation of Korean aesthetics. In the afternoon, we'll explore the alleyways of Insadong, alive with the spirit of craftsmen, to create our own "handmade seal." We'll then cap off the day with a cup of warm quince tea in the ondol (heated floor heating) room of a 100-year-old traditional Korean house. This itinerary allows you to immerse yourself in Seoul's most elegant atmosphere, without the hassle of reservations.
