Preview
Korea has a long history of 9,000 years so it is natural that the country is full of sites of historic significance. Many of them are related to the many monarchs that ruled Korea up until 1910.
Tourists love to come to Korea and stop by a palace or shrine, but many leave without actually knowing the cultural and historical meanings of these sites.
Not only will you get to see these cultural sites that are preserved in immaculate conditions, but a guide will also teach you all about the back story of each location.
