Seoul

Seoul is a big city, and it is a city full of life. You can find several areas full of restaurants and night life swarming with people. But it also a city close to nature. There are several peaks inside the city and just north of it there is a national park with great hiking opportunities. And of course, Seoul has its fair share of sights, including palaces from the old Korean kingdom.

I stayed in Seoul for three days, and that is far from sufficient to set it all. True, it was my second visit, but as it was more than 25 years since the last time, my memory was foggy on what I saw that time. I don't think that there was a single time I said to myself, "oh, I recognise this place".
