What to do?

Hi



My wife and I will be in Seoul first week of September this year staying at the Ibis Myeong-dong and have just 1 day free to sightsee. We then return first week in October and have 2 days free.



Can anyone suggest what to do-see, where to go,likely weather, transport, day trips etc.



Any help would be appreciated,



Cheers



Alan

Hi,





For your one day stopover in Sept, you could do your sightseeing in the hotel%26#39;s vicinity - visiting the Kyongbok Palace, Deoksu Palace and Cheongyechon Stream in the day. At night you could explore the Namdaemun Market or take a cable car ride to Seoul Tower.





For your two days in Oct, you could spend the first in Seoul and the second on a day trip. You could buy an all day Seoul City Tour Bus pass which will cover all the tourist attractions around Seoul including the Blue House (Presidential Residence), UNESCO heritage site Changdeokgung Palace, Korean War Memorial, Insadong, Itaewon, etc. You can alight at any place that catches your fancy and reboard the bus again, as many times as you like within the day.





You%26#39;ve not indicated what your interests lie, so here are a few suggestions for side trips on your second day in Oct:



%26gt; Everland Theme Park (much bigger than Dreamworld)



%26gt; Suwon Village - another UNESCO heritage site



%26gt; Demilitarized Zone



For the DMZ trip, you%26#39;ll need to get your



conceirge to book a tour for you once you reach



your hotel.





Have fun.

Thanks for that info, much appreciated.
