Seoul Jongno-gu · Today’s itinerary

Walking the Historic Center of Seoul

Walking along the path that follows the Seoul City Wall, you will encounter Inwangsa, an old temple on the foothills of Inwangsan. After visiting Inwangsa, follow Jeongdong-gil. Jeongdong-gil always offers a beautiful view that is perfect for a walk. Visit the old Russian Embassy and the Yu Gwansun Memorial Hall, which are linked to modern history, and do not forget the pains of the late Joseon period.
