It's understandable for travelers to set their eyes on the capital city of Seoul to live out their very own K-Drama. However, as many have discovered, there's much more to Korea than the bustling city streets and never-ending night life. The country is filled with well-kept historical sites, features an array of unique attractions, and helps visitors to dive right into Korea's rich culture, sometimes free of charge. While big cities like Seoul offer an amazing combination of both modern day delights and scenic views, there are some places that focuses more so on connecting with nature and discovering the history of Korea. One such city where travelers can experience this is Namyangju.

Namyangju is located towards the northeast of Seoul and is easily accessible via subway through the Gyeogui Jungang Line, roughly an hour if departing from Seoul Station. While planning your itinerary, exploring Namyangju can become a relaxing day trip, as well as an escape from the hustle and bustle of Seoul's hectic city life. Although you'll find towering buildings, you can head out into the surrounding area and find numerous historical and nature attractions just waiting for you.
