Things to Do in Seoul

Short answer

Seoul's sights, with the rules that decide how a visit goes: which days the palaces close, what counts as hanbok for free entry, and when residential streets are off-limits to tourists.

Seoul's best-known sights come with rules that guides often skip. Gyeongbokgung closes on Tuesdays while Changdeokgung closes on Mondays, hanbok gets you into the main palaces free only if it meets a published standard, and parts of Bukchon are closed to tourists outside set hours.

These guides put those rules first, with the source and the date each one was checked.
