Destinations Of the Month           

 
Seoul is the capital of South Korea and located on the northwest corner of South Korea. The central area of Korea is the most important for both sightseeing and accommodation. Overshadowed by high-rises and 12-lane freeways, it retains a hidden history of centuries-old temples, palaces, pagodas and pleasure gardens.
Tourists and shoppers are well at home in Itaewon, south of Mt.Namsan. The Han River winds through the city, splitting it in two. The Gangnam-gu area on the south bank is Seoul's most exclusive neighborhood, but on the whole, the southern areas have less interest to the traveler than the historic northern neighborhoods.
Despite being home to 10 million residents, Seoul is a safe and friendly city with a low crime rate. Seoulites work long hours but also enjoy socializing and are generally more than kind to foreign visitors.
