Nami Island and Chuncheon Must Go, day trip from Seoul

Seoul
8 hours

The soap opera 'Winter Sonata' made this island famous. On the other hand it was nature-friendly place to go among Korean before the soap opera. Nami island became island from the mountain peak, because the Cheongpyeong dam increased water level of the North Han river. And once we go here, it is highly recommended to do enjoyable Rail Bike Riding and visit the Garden of Morning Calm. These are recommended destinations but the itinerary can be customized by your interest and request.

Seoul

Paju is the nearest place where tourists can see the north Korea land crossed the border, drawn on 38th degree of north latitude right after the World War 2. After crossing the Southern Limit Line, we reach to the DMZ where is Dora Observatory and 3rd Infiltration tunnel built by north Korea. Sure you can definitely feel some scary but it is the most peaceful place in the world. Since we completed the DMZ tour run by the Paju city, then move to vicinity like Majang lake or Royal tomb.
