Some 25 million South Koreans – about half the population – travel abroad at least once a year, but it’s safe to assume that most haven’t seen all the beautiful sights within their own country.
Seoul only takes up a mere 0.6% of South Korea’s territory: here are 50 beautiful places other 99.4% of the country that are all worth a visit.
Below are 50 places of the flowery spring landscapes, sandy beaches, rocky mountains and quietly stunning historic sites on your new travel bucket list for South Korea.
But to complete the list of beautiful places, we’ve also asked three veteran travel photographers – Seo Heun Kang, Kim Bong-Sun and Im Jay-cheon – who know the country from tip to spine to tail to share images of their favorite spots around South Korea, which are in the gallery above.
1. Seongsan Sunrise Peak (성산일출봉)
Hydrovolcanic eruptions formed this majestic volcanic crater 5,000 years ago on Jeju Island.
A UNESCO world heritage site, the peak is famous for many things, including numerous rare plant species, but is best known for the magnificent sight of the sun rising over it (hence the name).
The climb up the peak’s northwest side ridge (its other sides are steep cliffs) to the 180-meter highest point takes 30 minutes.

2. Ggotji Beach (꽃지 해수욕장)
Located four kilometers southwest from Anmyeon-eup, this cream-colored beach is the ideal place to go for a drive and watch the sun sink into the ocean between two large rock formations known as the Granny Rock and the Grandpa Rock.
Legend has it that the wife of a base commanding officer in the Shilla Dynasty became the Granny Rock when she died after waiting faithfully for her husband.

3. Darangee Village (경상남도 남해 가천 다랭이마을)
Darangee Village, a small well-preserved village in the southernmost area of west Namhae-gun, features an extraordinary sight of countless tiny fields (over 100 levels) on a steep mountain slope against the open sea.
Honghyeon-ri, Nam-myeon, Namhae-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do (경남 남해군 남면 홍현리)
4. Gwang-An Bridge (부산 광안대교)
Also known as the Diamond Bridge, this two-story bridge connects Suyeong-gu and Haeundae-gu and offers an astonishing view of mountains, sandy beaches, hills and city lights.
Gwang-An Bridge is not for pedestrians, but anyone can enjoy the spectacular night view of the bridge from afar; its state-of-the-art lighting system allows an exterior lighting of over 100,000 colors.
Suyeong-gu, Busan (부산광역시 수영구)
5. Kyeong-Wha Station, Jinhae (진해 경화역)
This small whistle-stop bustles with tourists and amateur photographers every spring.
Cherry blossoms rain down on the train track and countless shutters click madly away as the train approaches the station under the cherry blossom tunnel.
The cherry blossom road at Yeojwa stream, (number 17 on this list) is also nearby for those who want more photo-ops.
Kyeongwha-dong, Jinhae-gu, Gyeongsangnam-do (경남 창원시 진해구 경화동)
6. Upo Marsh (우포늪)
At 2,314 kilometers squared, Upo Marsh is the largest inland wetland in Korea and three times the size of Yeouido. Formed over 140 million years ago, the marsh is home to 1,500 plants and animals, some of which are endangered species.
Visitors can bike or walk around this beautiful natural swamp, where migratory birds are known for flying low.
Daedae-ri, Yueo-myeon, Changnyeong-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do (경남 창녕군 유어면 대대리)
7. Jeungdo Salt Farm (전남 신안 증도 염전)
This treasure island (artifacts from the Song Dynasty have actually been found at the bottom of the sea) is famous for its clear seawater, soft beach, and salt farms.
The magical sight of huge salt farms is not the only spectacle that can be found here; the mud flat leisure town allows tourists to experience and observe the marine life of the mud flat.
Jeungdo-myeon, Sinan-gun, Jeollanam-do (전남 신안군 증도면)
8. Gongryong Ridge, Seorak Mountain (설악산 신선대 공룡능선)
Physical fitness and mountain climbing experience are prerequisites to viewing these curious peaks in the Seorak mountain range.
Thought to be shaped like the spine of a dinosaur (hence the name, “Dinosaur Ridge”), this rocky ridge offers spectacular views of both inner and outer Seorak. The climb is no picnic: the peak elevation of Gongryong Ridge, the most popular ridge route in the range, is approximately 1,200 meters.
Goseong-gun/Yangyang-gun/Inje-gun, Sokcho-si, Gangwon-do (강원도 속초시 고성군, 양양군, 인제군)
9. Uleung Island Seaside Road (울릉도 해안도로)
Uleung Island, nicknamed “Mysterious Island,” is a popular weekend getaway spot for Seoulites. Curious rock formations, shore cliffs and numerous waterfalls adorn the island’s Seaside Road.
Anyone planning to walk or bike their way around Uleung Island should make sure they set aside enough time, as they will inevitably stop countless times to admire the glorious view.
Uleung-eup, Uleung-gun, Gyeongsangbuk-do (경북 울릉군 울릉읍)
10. Seopjikoji, Jeju Island (제주도 섭지코지)
First-time visitors to Jeju Island need to plan their trip wisely, as the Jeju bucket list is long and varied. One of the musts on the list is Seopjikoji, a promontory on the coast famous for its serenity and romance. Yellow rape blossoms fill the field in the spring, creating a colorful contrast with the red soil and cerulean sky.
The best photographs of Sungsan Sunrise Peak (the first item on this list) can be taken here at Seopjikoji.
The scenery of Seopjikoji has also been captured by several Korean films and dramas, including “All In,” one of the first Hallyu dramas starring Lee Byung-hun and Song Hye-kyo.

11. Bomun Pavilion, Gyeongju (경주 보문정)
Gyeongju, an ancient capital of the Shilla Dynasty, boasts the nickname “a museum with no walls.”
Bomun Pavilion, a small wooden gazebo standing over a quiet duck pond, is a great spot to experience Korea’s spring; the cherry blossoms fluttering over the pond provide an exquisite sight. In fact, it’s the perfect place to view all of Korea’s markedly different seasons: summer’s lush green leaves, fall’s scarlet and mustard foliage, and winter’s blankets of snow.
Bodeok-dong, Gyeongju-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do (경북 경주시 보덕동)
12. Udo (우도)
Just 15 minutes away from Jeju Island, Udo is another addition to Jeju’s bucket list.
Visitors can hike on Olle road, or opt for a scooter ride along the shore, a submarine excursion or sea fishing. Just don’t forget the sunblock.
Udo-myeon, Jeju-si, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province (제주특별자치도 제주시 우도면)
13. Haeinsa Temple, Hapcheon (합천 해인사)
The world’s oldest intact Buddhist canon, the Tripitaka Koreana, is carefully housed in the 1,200-year-old Haeinsa Temple.
The temple’s other landmarks include the oldest wooden Buddha statue in Korea (the Haeinsa Vairocana) and a UNESCO world heritage Janggyeong Panjeon ( a “storage hall of Buddhist Sutras”).
10 Chiin-ri, Gaya-myeon, Hapcheon-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do (경남 합천군 가야면 치인리 10번지)
14. Chunwang Peak, Jiri Mountain (지리산 천왕봉)
At 1,915 meters, Chunwang Peak on Jiri Mountain is the second highest peak in South Korea and the beloved conquest of many a Korean mountain climber.
The national park on Jiri Mountain stretches over five cities and three provinces, and is home to quietly dazzling flora and fauna as well as seven national treasures and 26 treasures.
Many tread the trail to Chunwang Peak to watch the sun rise, some simply to enjoy the view from the top, and others for the pleasure of breathing in the crisp, clean mountain air and drinking the brain freeze-inducing spring water of Chunwang Spring, which is located just 300 meters below Chunwang Peak.
Samjang-myeon/Sicheon-myeon, Sancheong-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do (경남 산청군 시천면, 삼장면)
15. Juknokwon, Damyang (담양 죽녹원)
This dense bamboo thicket is located in Damyang, another “slow city” that welcomes all who are tired of hectic city life.
Eight trails around the thicket offer eight different themes to saunter through. If you look carefully between the bamboo plants, you can spot the green tea shoots that grow from the dew that drips off the bamboo leaves, known as Jukro tea. The Juknokwon observatory in the middle of the thicket occasionally hosts Jukro tea tasting events.

16. Naganeupseong Folk Village, Suncheon (순천 낙안읍성 민속마을)
Straw-roofed houses, government offices, guesthouses and a castle, all from the Chosun Dynasty, remain perfectly preserved in their original forms in this 22 square kilometer historical site.
No, it’s not an exterior set of a historical drama, people actually live in those houses and better yet, they offer overnight homestays.
Choongmin-gil, Nagan-myeon, Suncheon-si, Jeollanam-do (전라남도 순천시 낙안면 충민길 30)
17. Yeojwa Stream (경상남도진해여좌천벚꽃길)
The fifth item on this list already touched on the festival of cherry blossoms in Jinhae, but the cherry blossom road at Yeojwa Stream is so strikingly beautiful that it deserves another mention (and another photo).
Lovers visit this site to cross the Romance Bridge, which has been used as a shooting location for “Romance,” a drama starring Kim Ha-nul and Kim Jae-won.
Bloggers say that these romantic blossoms can be most appreciated at night, when there are fewer tourists and the pale pink flowers glow against the dark sky.
Yeojwa-dong, Jinhae-gu, Changwon-si, Gyeongsangnam-do (경상남도 창원시 진해구 여좌동)
18. Boseong Green Tea Field (보성 녹차밭)
Approximately 40% of Korea’s tea is produced in the rolling fields of Boseong, which has also provided the backdrop of many Korean dramas and films.
Yes, green tea-related specialties (fresh green tea ice cream and green tea pork belly) are tasty treats, but the spectacular view of the seemingly endless tea fields is the real reason so many visitors stop by Boseong. A green tea festival is held every May while in the winter, the fields are decorated with tiny light bulbs.
Bongsan-ri, Boseong-eup, Boseong-gun, Jeollanam-do (전라남도 보성군 보성읍 봉산리)
19. Bulguksa Temple (경주 불국사)
This UNESCO-listed site is perhaps the most famous historic site in Korea.
Two granite pagodas on either sides of the temple, Dabotap and Seokgatap, as well as Seokguram, a man-made grotto just above the temple, add to the splendid grandeur of this 1,500-year-old home of many important relics.
15-1 Jinhyeon-dong, Gyeongju-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do (경상북도 경주시 진현동 15-1)
20. Daegwallyeong Ranch (대관령 양떼목장)
This only sheep ranch in Korea doubles as a natural sledge park in winter. The dreaminess of the view is as heady as the mountain air. Meat-lovers should stop by the restaurants in the ranch village for a taste of the highest grade lamb.

Tongyeong, South Korea’s coastal gateway
21. Cheongdo Bull Fighting Festival (청도 소싸움 축제)
As the biggest bull fighting festival in South Korea, Cheongdo Bull Fighting Festival attracts around half a million people every year. In addition to the big matches of 130 fighting bulls, there are art contests, cow-play exorcisms, rodeo experiences, and even magic shows to entertain the crowd.
If the sights are a bit too violent for your taste, there are other Cheongdo attractions such as the Nakdae Waterfall and Unmun Temple.
Cheongdo-gun, Gyeongsangbuk-do (경상북도 청도군)
22. Hyeopjae Beach, Jeju Island (제주도 협재 해수욕장)
This white sandy beach is perfect for families with its shallow water (average depth of 1.2 meters), nearby amenities, and camping in the pine forest surrounding the beach. Hyeopjae is also particularly known for its delicious abalones and conches, served fresh in the seafood restaurants dotting the beach.
2497-1 Hyeopjae-ri, Hallim-eup, Jeji-si, Jeju Speicial Self-Governing Province (제주특별자치도 제주시 한림읍 협재리 2497-1번지)
23. Anapji (Anap Pond) (경주 안압지)
This man-made pond was created during the Shilla Dynasty approximately 1,500 years ago.
Three buildings stand on three artificial islands while patches of lotus flowers frame the pond. Gorgeous exterior lighting that go on after sunset create a magical night view.
26 Inwang-dong, Gyeongju-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do (경상북도 경주시 인왕동 26)
24. Seryang-Je (세량제)
Seryang-Je, a reservoir built in 1969 in Hwasun, is another famous spot for both professional and amateur photographers for its ethereal mist and reflections of colorful blossoms and leaves.
Seryang-ri, Hwasun-eup, Hwasun-gun, Jeollanam-do (전라남도 화순군 화순읍 세량리)
25. Kwanghan Pavilion (광한루)
Kwanghan Pavilion is the setting of Chunhyangjeon, one of Korea’s most famous folk tales.
Chunhyang, the young, beautiful daughter of a gisaeng (Korean geisha), and Mongryong, the handsome son of the local governor, first met and fell in love in this beautifully designed pavilion, which was designated a treasure in 1963.
77-1 Cheongeo-dong, Namwon-si, Jeollabuk-do (전북 남원시 천거동 77-1)
26. Seomjin River Train Village (섬진강 기차마을)
Kudos to the Gokseong district office which has managed to create a lovely tourist attraction out of abandoned railroads. A brief steam train ride (they don’t make ‘em like this anymore, literally) is available for tourists, who can also enjoy a bike hike on a trail bike or a romantic walk beside the train track.
770-5 Oji-ri, Ogok-myeon, Gokseong-gun, Jeollanam-do (전라남도 곡성군 오곡면 오지리 770-5)
27. Cheongsando (청산도)
For a small country road, Cheongsando marks a lot of “firsts” – it is the world’s first “Slow Road” in Asia’s first “Slow City.” It doesn’t take long to realize why it is called “Slow Road” – one’s pace naturally slackens to fall in with the pace of the rest of the island.
Rape blossoms (in spring) and Mexican Asters (in fall) in full bloom are bordered by simple stone walls.
Cheongsan-myeon, Wando-gun, Jeollanam-do (전라남도 완도군 청산면)
28. Halla Mountain (한라산)
This fairy-tale sight of snowflakes and icicles covering tree branches on Halla Mountain were the inspiration for the Halla Snow Festival that was held late January/early February every year.
Unfortunately, the festival was halted a few years ago because whenever they set a date it would rain and people would get mad. But the snow-covered trees are still there, and you are welcome to go sledding, snow rafting and ice sliding on your own.
Halla Mountain, Jeju Special Self-Governing Province (제주특별자치도 한라산)
29. Terraced Fields, Hamyang (함양 다락논)
This small village at the foot of Jiri Mountain displays a curious sight of terraced rice paddies. In spring the water in the paddies reflects the sky, while in fall the paddies glow with golden grains.
Macheon-myeon, Hamyang-gun, Gyeongsangnam-do (경남 함양군 마천면)
30. Nuri Peace Park (임진각 평화누리공원)
This artistic park located in Paju embodies South Koreans’ yearning and longing for peace in the Korean Peninsula.
Yes, it’s a rather heavy subject, but even those who couldn’t care less about the death of Kim Jong Il can still enjoy the beauty of this park, which is well-known for its colorful display of pinwheels and the giant bamboo colossi.
618-13 Majeong-ri, Munsan-eup, Paju-si, Gyeonggi-do (경기도 파주시 문산읍 마정리 618-13)
31. Silk Fall, Jiri Mountain (지리산 뱀사골 실비단폭포)
This mossy waterfall is in a now-restricted area of Jiri Mountain, which means a heavy fine for anyone caught venturing near here.
Think of it as a really long sabbatical for nature.
Baemsa-Valley, Jiri Mountain, Namwon-si, Jeollabuk-do (전북 남원시 지리산 뱀사골)
32. Young-san River (영산강)
Among the many beautiful river views in Korea, those from the Young-san River rank among the top and give those from Han River some serious competition.
For dedicated cyclists, there’s a 132 kilometer-long cycle path following the river from Damyang to Mokpo.
Yongso-ri, Yong-myeon, Damyang-gun, Jeollanam-do (전남 담양군 용면 용소리)
33. Poppy Garden, Simhak Mountain, Paju (파주 심학산 꽃밭)
The poppy-dotted scenery at Simhak Mountain looks like it’s straight out of a Claude Monet painting. One of the few places where you can see poppies in Korea, the local town hosts a Poppy Festival here every year around June.
Simhak Mountain, Paju-si, Gyeonggi-do (경기도 파주시 심학산)
34. Royal Azalea Festival, Hwangmae Mountain (황매산 철쭉축제)
At 1,108 meters, Hwangmae Mountain is the highest peak in the Sobaek mountain range, and is covered by royal azalea blossoms every spring.
The festival runs from the beginning of May for two weeks, and organizers recommend coming at dawn to capture the most intense images on camera.

35. Sin-Reuk Temple, Yeo Ju (여주 신륵사)
This old riverside temple is relatively unknown to the public and features quite a few treasures including stone pagodas, a stone bell and a grove of zelkova trees. The temple and its surrounding area also hosts a sweet potato festival early every January.
282 Cheonsong-ri, Yeoju-eup, Yeoju-gun, Gyeonggi-do (경기도 여주군 여주읍 천송리 282)
36. Daedun Mountain Suspension Bridge (대둔산 구름다리)
Daedun Mountain is famous for its bright autumn colors and its 81-meter-high Geumgang Suspension Bridge.
The red bridge that connects Imgeum Rock and Ipseokdae makes mountain climbing seem easy.
Wanju-gun, Jeollabuk-do / Geumsan-gun, Chungcheongnam-do (전북 완주군, 충남 금산군)
37. Haeundae Beach (해운대 해수욕장)
Hundreds of thousands frequent to this renowned beach every summer, but summer is not the only season you can see some flesh at Haeundae – the Polar Bear Festival is held every January, when contestants leap in the cold ocean screaming and laughing.
Around 2,000 people attended this year’s festival, marking the largest number of participants to date.
Woo 1-dong,Joong-dong, Haeundae-gu, Busan (부산 해운대구 우1동 , 중동)
38. Yongam Temple (옥천 용암사)
Originally built in 552, this temple takes its name from a nearby rock that was supposed to have been shaped like a dragon but was destroyed along with most of the temple during the Japanese occupation.
According to legend, the last prince of the Shilla Dynasty wept here after glimpsing a view of his hometown. He was on his way to Geumgang Mountain after the fall of the dynasty.
On brisk fall mornings, the mountains surrounding this temple are slathered with a sea of clouds, and the sight of the sun rising through this dense whiteness of clouds renders the viewer speechless.
Samcheong-ri, Okcheon-eup, Okcheon-gun, Chungcheongbuk-do (충북 옥천군 옥천읍 삼청리)
39. Snow in Taebaek Mountain (태백산 설경)
Gangwon province is famous for catastrophically heavy snows in the winter.
While driving there may be rough, the snowfall makes for the best skiing in the country.
The High1 Resort features the highest peak (1,345 meters) and puffiest snow among ski and snowboard resorts in Korea.
Mungok-dong, Taebaek-si, Gangwon-do (강원도 태백시 문곡동)
40. Yang Dong Traditional Village (양동 한옥마을)
The nature and culture of this village remains the same as it was during the Chosun Dynasty. One of the most recent additions to the UNESCO world heritage list, the village has featured famous guests such as Prince Charles and former UN chief Ban Ki-Moon.
Yangdong-ri, Gangdong-myeon, Gyeongju-si, Gyeongsangbuk-do (경북 경주시 강동면 양동리)
41. Nami Island (남이섬)
Despite the fact that Nami Island is a place of historical interest (the island is named after Minister Nami, a Minister of War during the Chosun Dynasty), most visitors come to stroll down the famous Metasequoia road or see where Bae Yong-joon and Choi Ji-woo stood or sat during the filming for the original Hallyu drama “Winter Sonata.”
Fun fact: Nami Island was not an island until the 1940s, when the Cheongpyeong dam was built.
Bangha-ri, Namsan-myeoon, Chuncheon-si, Gangwon-do (강원도 춘천시 남산면 방하리)
42. Suncheon Bay (순천만)
One of the biggest coastal marshes in the world, Suncheon Bay is home to countless plants and marine life and features the biggest field of reeds (5.4 kilometers squared) in Korea.
The Suncheon Bay Reed Festival is held every year in October, but the bay is just as beautiful and charming any other month of the year.
162-2 Daedae-dong, Suncheon-si, Jeollanam-do (전라남도 순천시 대대동 162-2)
43. Inje Smelts Festival (인제 빙어축제)
The Inje Smelts Festival takes place on Soyang lake every winter and offers families and couples (and the occasional single visitor) some major fun on ice. Even if fishing is not your idea of fun, you’ll enjoy the eating part.
Soyang Lake, Inje-gun, Gangwon-do (강원도 인제군 소양호)
44. Ulsan Rock, Seorak Mountain (울산바위)
This six-peaked rocky mountain has five urn-shaped holes at the top and is named “Crying Mountain,” due to legends and ancient records that claim the rocks on the mountain cry just before a big wind is about to blow.
Another legend behind the mountain’s name says that a rock was wandering around looking for Geumgangsan but settled in Seoraksan when it couldn’t find it, and became the Ulsan rock.
Seorak National Park, Seorak-dong, Sokcho-si, Gangwon-do (강원 속초시 설악동 설악산국립공원)
45. Bangwhasuryujeong, Suwon Hwa Seong (화성 방화수류정)
Bangwhasuryujeong is one of four polygonal pavilions in Hwa Seong.
During the Joseon dynasty, this pavilion was used to keep a lookout and for performances of King Jungjo’s archery skills; now people hold recitals of Korean traditional music and poetry surrounded by the duck pond, the willow trees and the flowers.
Paldal-gu, Suwon-si, Gyeonggi-do (경기도 수원시 팔달구)
46. Namdae Stream, Muju (무주 남대천 섶다리)
Traditionally, a seop bridge – a temporary bridge fashioned out of logs, mud, and pine branches – was built to let the villagers cross Namdae River from early winter until the summer, when heavy rains would wash the bridge away.
Namdae Stream, Muju-eup, Muju-gun, Jeollabuk-do (전라북도 무주군 무주읍 남대천)
47. Donglim Reservoir, Gochang (고창 동림저수지)
Every year, more than 200,000 spectacled teals (the color takes its name from the bird) fly about in an orderly manner above this beautiful reservoir, which was voted “Kingdom of migratory birds” in 2004 in a national survey.
Built in 1935, the 3.82-square-kilometer reservoir is also famous as a fishing hole.
Heungduk-myeon/Sungnae-myeon, Gochang-gun, Jeollabuk-do (전북 고창군 흥덕면/성내면)
48. The Garden of Morning Calm (아침고요수목원)
The Garden of Morning Calm is a beautifully designed and balanced arboretum in Gapyeong, run by a professor of horticulture.
The garden features more than 20 themes and 5,000 different kinds of plants, and will be hosting a luminarie – a decorative structure studded with 6 million LED lightbulbs – until March 1.
255 Mountain Haenghyeon-ri, Sang-myeon, Gapyeong-gun, Gyeonggi-do (경기도 가평군 상면 행현리 산 255번지)
49. Chok-suk Pavilion (촉석루)
This beautiful, historical pavilion overlooking Nam River is most famous as the place where Nongae, the concubine of a government official in the Chosun Dynasty, jumped into the river with a Japanese general after the castle of Jinju fell into Japan’s hands. Check out the view from the pavilion on the cliff, but don’t jump; they won’t be telling your story in the same way.
