South Korea is a country
of contrasts. A place
where massive metropolises
are separated by
rolling green hills, and
where state-of-the-art
technology meets a traditional,
hierarchical
culture.
Seoul -– The Soul of Asia
Seoul, the megacity with a population of
just under ten million, is home to a cuisine
that has been shaped by international
influences. Primarily
by Japan and the US. In addition
to its culture and its many attractions,
Seoul is also known for its hospitality.
The city also has much to offer nature lovers:
four large and several smaller mountains
in and around the sprawling city, fantastic
parks, and bicycle paths along the river are
all excellent destinations for day trips and
the perfect way to relax and get away from
the hustle and bustle of everyday life. And,
last but not least, it also promises a wonderful
balance between delicious traditional
and modern food.

FUN FACTS
• In Korea, on the day of your
birth you're considered to be one
year old.
• Always address Koreans with the
proper title and never with their
first name.
• Korean buildings never have a
fourth storey. Four is an unlucky
number.
