Seoul + Gyeongju
Gyeongju, the capital city of the Silla Dynasty (57 BC – 935 AD), is alive with the vibrant culture and art from the nearly one thousand years of prosperity. Thanks to this, the city is dotted with UNESCO World Cultural Heritages Sites.
Bulguksa Temple is Korea’s most famous temple and cultural heritage site. All eyes are drawn to Seokgatap and Dapotap Pagodas upon entering the temple.

One of the most unique scenes in Gyeongju is the sight of 23 nearly uniformly-sized hills found at Daereungwon Tomb Complex.
The hills are actually the tombs of kings, queens and other nobility of the Silla Dynasty.
Gyeongju is a great city to enjoy a romantic night tour. Cheomseongdae Observatory and Daereungwon Tomb Complex boast even smoother curves under the moonlight.

Gyeongju Donggung Palace and Wolji Pond show their gorgeous figures at night. It is easy to appreciate the beautiful city of Gyeongju, especially with a nice slow walk after sunset when the lights come on.
