About Things to Do in South Korea
Korea is a fascinating country with a rich history and culture that extends far beyond Seoul and Busan. You can explore the ruins of historic temples, tombs, and palaces, and get a glimpse into what life was like in ancient Korea. For example, a visit to the Seokguram Grotto and Bulguksa Temple, both UNESCO World Heritage sites, is a must for anyone interested in Korean Buddhism and architecture.
Additionally, South Korea offers many modern and fun things to do. For a unique experience, try renting a bike and riding along the scenic paths of the Bomun Lake Resort. Additionally, you can get out your skateboard and tour the country’s many skate parks. Or, you can visit all of the zip lines and rail bike attractions.
Get out and explore beyond the cafes and shopping. Discover the depth and beauty of Korean culture across the country.

Additionally, these lists often include locations rarely mentioned in other English language blogs. We have researched through Naver and Daum to find all the places rather than just the foreign tourist locations. Additionally, almost none of the locations are in Seoul.
