Trip to Nami Island & Seoul
A trip to Gyeonggi-do isn’t complete without a visit to Nami Island. It is the home of the Petit, France in Korea which is exceptionally beautiful during autumn months when it’s bathed in pumpkin spice-coloured pine and maple trees.
The iconic island is the filming location of famous dramas like Winter Sonata, My Love from the Star, Secret Garden, and even some episodes of Running Man.
Seoul is another destination to add to your must-visit list because it’s only 40 minutes away by train.
The famous city is home tourist hotspots like N Seoul Tower, Gyeongbokgung Palace, Changdeokgung & endless hipster shopping districts at Hongdae.
