Description:

Experience the culture and heritage of Seoul on this full-day tour. Explore Gyeongbokgung Palace, see Korean history at the National Folk Museum, and be charmed by the beauty of Jogye Buddhist Temple before a sauna with soothing oil massage and face-mask therapy at the end of your trip.

Your excursion begins with a pickup from your Seoul hotel. Ride past the Blue House, the official residence of South Korea's president, on your way for a guided tour of Gyeongbokgung Palace, a royal residence from the Joseon Dynasty and an outstanding example of traditional architecture.

While you're in the palace compound, visit the National Folk Museum as your guide explains traditional Korean lifestyles throughout history. Browse exhibits that depict farming methods, weaving, hunting, and cooking.

Next, stop at the Jogyesa Temple, for a look at Buddhism's important cultural role. Enter the daeungjeon, or main building, to admire its different colors and the statue of Seokgamoni Buddha.

Enjoy lunch at a local restaurant before taking some time to unravel and soak in a Korean-style sauna. Relax as your expert therapist assists you with a cleaning process known as seshin, using a calming oil massage, cucumber or seaweed face mask, and shampoo to complete your experience.
