Autumn in Korea is known for its stunning foliage. Take a trip to Namsan Seoul Tower for panoramic views of the city enveloped in autumn colors. Gyeongju, often referred to as 'the museum without walls,' is another must-visit. Its ancient temples and tombs look even more majestic against the backdrop of autumn leaves. Don't forget to explore the scenic paths of Seoraksan National Park, where the mountains are adorned with vibrant hues of red, orange, and yellow.

In fact, South Korea is very small country. Remember that the United States is more than 9000% bigger than South Korea! So, if you have three days in Korea, start with a day in Seoul exploring Gyeongbokgung Palace, Bukchon Hanok Village, and Myeongdong for shopping. On the second day, take a trip to the DMZ for a unique historical experience. Spend your final day in Busan, visiting Haeundae Beach and the bustling Jagalchi Fish Market. This itinerary provides a balanced mix of history, culture, and relaxation. Don't miss out the best Korean cuisines like pork belly BBQ!

Korea offers numerous family-friendly activities. Visit Lotte World, one of the largest indoor theme parks in the world, perfect for kids and adults alike. The Seoul Children's Museum offers interactive exhibits that are both educational and fun. For outdoor adventures, head to Everland, Korea's largest theme park, or the Seoul Grand Park, which features a zoo, botanical garden, and amusement park. These destinations ensure a memorable family trip. One of many places I recommend, is Magok Seoul Botanic Park. Operated by the city of Seoul, this botanic garden is a well-maintained and fantastic spot for a family outing. It features both outdoor and indoor sections, with areas that are open to the public and others that require an entrance fee. With just one ticket, you can explore multiple attractions. On rainy days, it’s recommended to spend more time indoors. - Address: 161 Magok-dong-ro, Gangseo-gu, Seoul - Operating hours: 9:30 AM - 6:00 PM (Closed every Monday) - Admission fees: Adults (ages 19-64) 5,000 KRW, Teens (ages 13-18) 3,000 KRW, Children (ages 6-12) 2,000 KRW
