Free Gangnam Walking Tour
My name is Marko, I am a world traveler, former archaeologist and a huge history nerd. I am originally from Europe but I moved to New York City 15 years ago. I have been living in Seoul for close to two years now. I really enjoy exploring this city and at this point I know hundreds of cool places to visit or see in this city.
Pickup
Meet me and the rest of the group at Exit 7 on "Bongeunsa" Train station in Gangnam. You can reach "Bongeunsa" train station by taking the 9 train line. I will wait for you INSIDE of exit 7.
Description
Join me for a Free Walking Tour of Gangnam, one of the richest areas in Seoul, South Korea and the entire world. Learn about the history of Gangnam and its present-day remarkable story. Hear some fun facts and stories about modern Korea.
Winter Update:
I have adjusted this tour for the winter season. Now we spend little more time inside the mall and this helps us warm up midway the tour. This tour is approximately 2.5 hours long. Little over 30 minutes we spend in the mall to check out the Starfield library. Bring some warm winter clothing and hand warmers and you should be fine for the rest of the tour.
During this tour we will see most of the main sites in Gangnam, allowing you to explore and take photos of:
1. Bongeunsa temple
2. COEX Starfield Mall Library
3. Statue of "Gangnam Style" mega-hit song.
4. Samseong Food and Culture Street.
5. Seolleung and Jeongneung Royal Tombs.
