When most tourists think of Seoul, most picture the crowded streets of Myeongdong, the night life of Hongdae, the shopping in Gangnam, or the beauty of Gyeongbokgung Palace. These destinations definitely deserve a visit, but some of the most memorable experiences are lesser known to the everyday tourist.
