Top 5 Cemeteries in Seoul, South Korea

June 15, 2021 Stefan Strunk

Seoul is the business and cultural hub of South Korea, where skyscrapers tower over Buddhist temples. Take it all in from the N Seoul Tower, built atop a peak in Namsan Park. The teahouses and shops of Insadong give you a taste of Korean flavor, which you can further experience with a visit to the grounds and museums of Gyeongbokgung. UNESCO World Heritage Site Changdeokgung Palace is a fine example of authentic ancient architecture.

Seoul National Cemetery

Reviewed By 590jhl - Seoul, South Korea

This is one of top two places to remember people who sacrified during Korean War. Must-visit place for locals. It's also decent place to rest. Very popular during spring and fall. - It is said this is really crowded during Memorial Day (June 6). Better to avoid if you're a tourist. - From late March to early April, it feels more like a public park with flowers like cherry blossoms. Good to take a walk along hillside, too. - Accessible from Dongjak and Old Banpo Stations.

We visited in the winter. It was a very peaceful walk away from the hustle and bustle of the city. Lovely.
