Overview

This small-group tour takes you to places that are historic yet unconventional, impressive yet woven into daily life.

Start at a secluded Buddhist temple, once a high-end entertainment house for the elite, now transformed into a place of quiet devotion. Witness how this space has been reshaped over time.

Next, step into a 1970s apartment complex—a rare glimpse into Seoul’s urban context. Built during a period of rapid transformation, this space embodies the shifting landscape of a growing metropolis.

Continue to the former home of a poet and activist, designed with a deliberate orientation as a quiet yet powerful symbol of resistance and national identity.

Finish the journey at an ancient fortress wall, leading to a scenic overlook. From here, take in sweeping views of the city, where modern structures and historic layers exist side by side. Capture the moment in a place where time stands still.

Step into untold stories of Seoul and leave with a deeper connection to the city.
