Seoul is the principal city of South Korea, with residents of more than 10 million people. The municipality officially became the capital in 1948. The town plays with the contrasts of futuristic buildings, ancient architecture, and Buddhist temples.

Vibrant nightlife and exemplary Korean clubs are located in the heart of the Gangnam metropolis. In addition, the city is a heaven for shopping and fashion. Walking through the metropolis, visitors can't pass Dongdaemun Design Plaza DDP and the 236-meter TV tower Seoul Tower. The design of the buildings resembles alien architecture with apparent features of futurism. In addition, Gyeongbokgung Palace is a real national treasure of 14th-century Korea. Numerous sacred houses with parks, museums, and exhibitions also attract the attention of travelers worldwide. In the spring, visitors can admire the cherry blossoms at the Hangan Park Festival, which is the perfect place to take photos to remember the vacation. While walking around the city, guests can enjoy the national cuisine of kimchi (pickled cabbage), samgethan (chicken soup stuffed with Chinese dates, ginseng, and rice), and hoe.

The municipality is an important political and economic center of the country. From the very beginning, the city was famous for its rural economy, and the economy gained the most significant development due to exports, which are common now. Today, the primary industries are trade, mechanical engineering, telecommunications, electronics, and construction. According to Fortune magazine, Seoul ranks seventh among the world's cities regarding the number of corporations. It is included in the list of the five hundred largest multinational corporations. Also, in 1998, the city became the capital of the 20th Summer Olympic Games, and in 2002, it was one of the venues for the World Football Championship. In addition, the medical field has also developed significantly. Back in 1989, Asan Medical Center Seoul began providing treatment according to the latest global recommendations and catching up with the world's leading hospitals.

A vacation in Seoul resembles a trip to the future, where highly developed technologies occupy a larger share of life. But numerous green areas and architecture of ancient times bring back to reality and allow harmony and unity with the culture of the past.
