The Ho-Am Art Museum has a beautiful sculpture garden, Yongin Natural Recreation Forest offers hiking trails, and the Gyeonggi Provincial Museum showcases regional history and archaeology.

Suwon

Suwon is defined by Hwaseong Fortress, a UNESCO World Heritage wall that wraps around the old city center. Walk the 5.7-kilometer rampart at sunset, then head to the alleys around Paldalmun Gate for some of Korea's best fried chicken and galbi.

Seoul

Seoul blends 600 years of Joseon-era palaces with neon-lit streets and a relentless food scene. From the hanok alleys of Bukchon to the underground shopping networks of Gangnam, the city rewards wandering at every turn.

Hwaseong

Hwaseong City sits just south of Suwon and draws visitors to Jebudo Island, accessible by a sea-parting road at low tide. The surrounding area mixes rural landscapes with the sprawling Dongtan new town, offering a quieter side of Gyeonggi Province.
