Sitting at the end of the Korean Peninsula, with North Korea claiming the top half of the land, South Korea has Japan and China as its other neighbours. Millions of visitors from these two countries hop across the water to explore everything that South Korea has to offer. In fact, the country is fast becoming China’s favourite place to visit. That will come as no surprise when you touch down and discover a destination enveloped in glorious history, a land clad with pea-green mountains, a capital city that excites, and a population with a warm Asian welcome that feels like it’s just for you.
Seoul, the capital of South Korea, famously hosted the Olympic Games in 1988 and, carrying on with the sporting theme, Busan was one of the cities that hosted the 2002 FIFA World Cup. Drawing thousands of tourists every year, the country also offers a wealth of natural sights and wonders.
Whenever you visit South Korea, this nation puts on a brilliant show. In spring the gorgeous blossoms come to life. In summer, after June’s rains, the beaches offer a welcome respite from the heat. In autumn the temperatures become bearable in the cities and the autumnal colours peep through. And in winter you can bathe in hot springs or take to the slopes for a spot of skiing.
