Seoul
Hot
Discount Hotel in Seoul
The fifth largest city in the world, the Seoul metropolis
has a population of about 11 million and is the center
for economy, finance, the arts and culture. Seoul
is known to be one of the safest places to travel
in with its low crime rate. There is a blend of old
and new in Seoul with the modern high-rises and trendy
shops mixed in with ancient temples and palaces. Shopping
is not a problem with the many department stores and
street shops located around the city. People are very
sociable and kind to visitors in Seoul. You will always
see people in groups laughing and walking along the
streets. Although English is taught in school, most
Koreans have problems with pronunciation. Since they
can read English very well, it's a good idea to write
down questions. The public transportation in Seoul
is excellent and will take you to almost any place
you need to go whether it's by taxi, bus, or subway.
Traffic congestion is a big problem in Seoul, so the
quickest way of getting around Seoul is generally
by subway. The Han River flows through the center
of Seoul. Encircling the city are rocky mountains
which makes Seoul blend nature and modernization beautifully.
The center of Seoul has a mountain called Namsan,
which has a tower on top that enables one to see almost
all of the city on a clear day. Temperatures in Seoul
are clearly defined by the four seasons: spring, summer,
fall and winter. Autumn is the best time to visit
Seoul since the temperatures are mild and the sky
is clear. Seoul has four palaces from the Chosun Dynasty.
The Chosun Dynasty determined that Seoul was to be
the capital of the Korean Peninsula in 1394. It remained
the capital of the entire peninsula throughout the
Chosun Dynasty up to the Korean War. During the Korean
War, Seoul was almost totally destroyed. From 1960-1970,
there was a tremendous effort to rebuild the city.
Rapid economic growth was evident and by 1988, Seoul
was home to the Olympics which brought to the world's
attention that it was one of the major cities in Asia.

Cheju island
Hot
Discount Cheju in Seoul
If you are in Korea for your honeymoon, Cheju is where
you should be heading for. Cheju island (Chejudo)
known as a place of fantasy or mystery is the largest
island in Korea and is located in the southwest sea
of the Korean peninsula and is highlighted for its
uniqueness. This large island 60 mi/100 km off the
coast of the mainland has a unique history dress architecture
language and tradition. Millions of dollars have been
pumped into the island to build deluxe hotels and
modernize the island’s infrastructure. Nevertheless
the island has not lost its charm. Chenju seems a
world away from the mainland even though it’s
relatively easy to reach—it’s an hour’s
flight south of Seoul or an overnight ferry ride from
Pusan, Mokpo or Wando. The island itself has a good
traffic infrastructure thanks to the many roads. The
population of the island is about 535,000. A major
highlight is Halla mountain, which was a volcano once
rising 1,950 metres above the sea level.
