Suwon City Tour

Today, take a private transfer to Suwon, a city located just outside of Seoul. Spend the day with a guide who will take you to key sites, including the Korean Folk Village, Suwon Hwaseong Fortress, and Starfield Suwon shopping mall, offering a balance of history and modern culture. Stroll through the Folk Village and gain insight into traditional Korean life from centuries ago. This site, reflecting the Juseon Dynasty, features authentic tiled and thatched homes, with actors portraying daily life as it once was. Suwon Hwaseong Fortress, another historical landmark from the Juseon Dynasty, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Built as both a military stronghold and a tribute to the king’s father, it carries deep historical significance. At the shopping mall, take some time to pick up souvenirs or gifts for family back home, enjoy a meal, or simply appreciate the scale of this mall. Return to Seoul and return to your hotel for the evening.
