  Bongeunsa Temple

  Starting Off: Bongeunsa Temple Your evening begins at the stunning Bongeunsa Temple, one of Seoul’s most peaceful hidden gems, tucked right in the middle of modern Gangnam. Skyscrapers glow around you, jutting high into the sky while the temple itself offers a completely different atmosphere, one with quiet lantern-lit pathways, the scent of incense gently wafting in the air, and centuries of Korean history woven like an intricate tapestry into the experience. There is nothing more surreal than stepping from the pulsating energy of Gangnam directly into the calming, spiritual beauty unearthed from the past.

  A Taste of Korea: Korean BBQ No night in Korea could possibly be complete without Korean BBQ, and this part of the tour wraps it up perfectly with an unforgettable meal. You won’t wind up in one of those tourist trap restaurants on this outing as your guide wants you to experience authentic local-style Korean food and the entire dining experience. Step inside for sizzling barbecue right in the center of your table, and pair it with traditional Korean drinks like soju, often referred to as Korean vodka, and beer. It’s the kind of relaxed social atmosphere that concludes a perfect evening, and something visitors remember years later.
