Hwaseong Fortress in the town of Suwon is just a 30-minute train ride from Seoul. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is one of Korea’s most important historical treasures and is the only remaining walled fortress in the country.
This place is a great stop and definitely in my top 15 things to see in South Korea. The fortress, gates, bastions, command posts, etc are amazing and picturesque. So many great opportunities to get cool and beautiful pictures. Lots of food and markets located on the south end of the fortress are an ideal place to stop for lunch or dinner. Small entry fee gives you access to the entirety of the fortress. Parking near Yeonmundae Information Center allows you access to tourist trolley. Parking is 2000₩ for 3 hours. If you have time, plan your trip later in the day to see the fortress in day light and at night. Beautiful beautiful beautiful. Good luck and have fun.

The Wawoojongsa (Waujeongsa) temple complex is a really awesome day trip location. Folks come to see the giant golden Buddha head, but the real attractions are to be found as you walk up the hill and explore the numerous other temples and shrines hidden away amongst the trees and landscape features. The grounds are beautiful and very well kept. We went on a Saturday morning and the place was not at all crowded. Very calm and relaxing. There is a significant elevation change as you walk up. So, folks with mobility issues might find it less appealing.
