Rejuvenate at Han River

When the summer sun blazes, finding respite becomes necessary. The Han River emerges as a serene retreat to beat the heat and chill with companions. Revel in the picturesque summer beauty while lounging on rented mats, or indulge in a picnic with delectable delights available from local food stalls or even delivered directly to your spot!

Consider stocking up on some picnic essentials before heading to this calming riverside. The mesmerizing sunset by the river makes for a prime Seoul summer spectacle, one not to be missed!

The Han River is a popular spot for boat rides in summer. You can rent a boat, explore the river at your own pace, or take a guided tour. 

Explore the Gastronomical Alleys

Renowned for its culinary repertoire, Seoul is brimming with vibrant food markets like Gwangjang, Dongdaemun, and Tongin. Teeming with local delicacies ranging from “mayak gimbap” to “bindaetteok”, these bustling food havens offer an immersive taste of Korean culture and are essential additions to your “summer in Seoul” itinerary. There are vendors selling all sorts of delicious food, from Korean staples like bibimbap and kimchi to international dishes like pizza and pasta.
