Spring date course
I've lived in Seoul for over 40 years, but this was my first time visiting Naksan Park, which is a relatively unknown place. As such, it's very quiet and more picturesque than you might imagine. Enjoy the beautiful view of downtown SeoulYou can do it.
It's also the site of the longest-serving city wall in the world, historically documented. Naksan Park is particularly famous for its beautiful nightscape, illuminated by the lights installed along the walls.
