5 Places and Activities to Enjoy Around Seoul During Autumn

Appreciate the Fall-tastic view of Seoul and N Seoul Tower

You can head over to the iconic Namsan Mountain, the highest point in the city, to catch the sight of warm-colored Ginko trees and maple trees. While you take a stroll on the walking trail, you can encounter lovely stops like Palgakjeong (octagon hall), cafes, and even Namsan Library.

You can also take the cable car to the N Seoul Tower on the top of the mountain. While you enjoy the cable car ride, you can delight in the gorgeous panoramic views of Seoul. You can see the rich fall colors ranging from plum to crimson accented with green and gold. 

Enjoy the Amazing Scenery at Insa-dong

Insa-dong, the village built for aristocrats and officials in the Joseon Dynasty, is only a short walk away from the Bukchon Hanok Village. There are hundreds of galleries in the village where you can enjoy a blend of both traditional and modern art.
