Top 5 Solo Friendly Spots in Seoul
Traveling to Korea alone can be an amazing experience. While Korea historically has a strong group dining and activity culture, many places are now becoming highly solo-friendly. Here are our top picks for solo travelers in Seoul:
1. Gyeongbokgung Palace
A beautiful place to walk and explore traditional Korean architecture at your own pace. Renting a Hanbok (traditional clothing) is highly recommended and actually grants you free admission!
2. Gwangjang Market
Great for street food! You can sit at individual stalls and enjoy food without feeling out of place. Be sure to try the mungbean pancakes (bindaetteok) and hand-torn noodle soup (kalguksu).
3. Bukchon Hanok Village
Wander through beautiful traditional alleys surrounded by preserved Korean homes. Remember to be quiet as this is a residential neighborhood.
