So many fun things to do and see.  Go to a palace, eat the food and go to Seoul tower.  You can also google the US military USO for a really good tour of the DMZ (anyone can take the tour).  You'll need your passport.  If you are hungry eat Bulgo-gi or Bi Bim Bap.  Shopping on Dongdaemun or Itaewan will net you some good finds.  You can almost always bargain.  Never take the first price.  Take the #3 bus up to Seoul Tower and see the view.  Also building 63 has a great view.  Using the subway is really easy.  It's all in English and cheap!

Itaewon is a major tourist hangout and many flock to it for it's night scene, although Hongdae is a trendier. Insadong is the place to get gifts, also has lots of traditional restaurants. Check out a Korean Sauna (Jim Jill Bang) at least once. Cheap place to stay overnight as well, if you don't mind sleeping on the floor with many other people. Duc (Chicken) Galbi is a must, or Dwaegi (Pork) Galbi. Near city hall you can check out a traditional korean dance and music performance. Very interesting. SC banks allow you to use your foreign bank card. There everywhere.

Food is very good, Bibimbap is my favourite!
However be careful if you can't eat hot things and /or garlic.
Don't let the hotels suggest you anywhere to eat. All the other restaurants are much cheaper. Expect to pay about 10 € per dinner, including beverages :-)

The Hotteok at Insadong is simply finger-licking. There are two stalls selling the same thing opposite each other. I think the tastier one is the stall that is located opposite the hospital. The stall that is along the same side as the hospital make sweeter filling and the filling is not as much as. Coz I think the stall holder uses a presser to flatten the pita-like bread. See the photos of hotteok and you won't get so blur about looking for it. Sipping tea is also one of the favourite activities apart from the traditional korean souvenirs that you can feast your eyes on. You can sip cold/hot drink and get a rice craker to go with your tea.

Soul is very hot in the July and August time of the year, high in humity. There is quiet a few attractions including a very good war museum. Hotels are expenisive (5 star), shopping okay, lots of different kinds of markets where you can get copies. Eating in the Korean restaurants is an experince you must try, but becareful what you order.

Travel is the best education you can get.

It's expensive in Seoul so don't be an impulsive spender.
Don't worry about punctuality in Seoul. The Koreans are punctual.
Enjoy Korean cuisine.

Korea is the greatest place around... And its people are even better...

Seoul , i think is one of the busiest city in the world.Seoulites as what they call themselves love to roam around the city on the weekends.Restaurants and cafes provide good, delicious food for the hungry travellers. Transportation is very easy as there are public buses, subways and cabs. Most of the instructions are translated in English. Likewise, there are some sightseeing buses for tourists to enjoy seeing those places within the city or outside of the city. The locals are very friendly inspite of their shortness in the English language. Seoul is a very modern city equipped with the latest technology for the comfort of its people and the travellers too!what else can i say but i love Seoul and sooner i'll be back in this country to study their language which i'll be needing for my foreign service career.
