Do you love history? In that case, we'll meet at the indicated time at exit 5 of the Dongnimmun Station to kick off this tour of Seoul. Throughout the tour, you'll learn about the impact of colonialism and how South Korea has adapted to modern times.
We'll begin our route visiting the Saedaemun Prison, a fundamental spot to understand South Korea's fight for independence. Built during the Japanese occupation, this prison held numerous anti-colonial activists. It could hold up to 500 people! Here, we'll walk past the cells and sombre corridors as we get to know its history.
Next, we'll walk to the Dongnimmun Arch, better known as Independence Gate. Don't forget to snap a photo!
After learning about the history of this monument, we'll walk to Dilkusha, the historic home of Albert Taylor, an American journalist who played a very important role in the South Korean independence movement. Did you know that this place has become a symbol of resilience and international cooperation? We'll tell you why!
Next, we'll take the metro to Tapgol Park. It was here in 1919 that the first cries for independence rang out, sparking a national uprising that would ultimately lead to South Korea's freedom.
After 3.5 hours in total, we'll finish this tour of Seoul at the Tapgol Park.
