Visit Seogwipo-Si in two days
To discover Seogwipo-Si, what could be better than sharing your time between urban visits and natural marvels. During your first day, you’ll walk through the city to explore its most beautiful spots: Saeyeongyo bridge, Lee Jung Seob art gallery, Oedolgae rocky peak and Maeil Olle market. The next day, set your course for the North for a hike to Mount Halla, South Korea’s highest peak. You’ll then set off to conquer the magnificent Jeongbang waterfall; this is a magnificent sight in Seogwipo-Si, as well as an unmissable one. Throughout your visits, you’ll come across dol ha-rub-ang, typical statues representing divinities, found all over the island. On the way back to your hotel near Seopjikoji coast walk, you could stop in the folkloric village of Seongeup or in Sunrise Lands theme park, where numerous surprises await you.
Top 3 culinary specialties in Seogwipo-Si
Other than its splendid natural landscapes and its dynamic urban atmosphere, this attractive port city boasts a culinary scene that is just as surprising and interesting. When based at your 4-star hotel in Seogwipo-Si, tour the local restaurants and try the specialties they have on offer. A traditional accompaniment for many dishes, kimchi is prepared using fermented and marinated peppers and cabbage- just right if you’re a fan of a mixture of sour and spicy flavors. For a more emblematic dish, order a bibimbap: this very popular meal consists of strips of beef served with rice and vegetables, topped with a fried egg. As far as cakes are concerned, you’ll be charmed by gyeongdan; these little balls of glutinous rice flour that are tasty and full of color. You’ll find all these typical dishes- and many more- in our Golden Tulip restaurant allowing you to enjoy some moments of sharing and conviviality centered around South Korean cuisine.
