The Experience
Before You Go
Book morning for coastal temples
Haedong Yonggungsa and Taejongdae have the best light in the morning and fewer crowds; plan those first if you want photos.
Carry small bills for markets
Jagalchi and Gukje vendors often prefer cash for quick transactions and street snacks.
Comfortable shoes for mixed terrain
Expect paved promenades, market stalls and temple stone steps—supportive walking shoes make the day easier.
Confirm accessibility needs in advance
While many stops are wheelchair-accessible, narrow alleys and cliff viewpoints may not be—ask the operator before arrival.
