Travelling to South Korea soon? We've rounded up three must-see spots while you're there this year-end!
Check out the magical Lotte Town Christmas Market
Happening from now to 4 January 2026, the Christmas Market at Lotte World Tower World Park (Grass Plaza) features 52 brands, a grand carousel, and a magnificent Christmas tree, creating a magical festive atmosphere.
Enjoy sledding, ice fishing, and more at the Hwacheon Sancheoneo Ice Festival
This unique winter festival was once called one of the "seven wonders of winter". Held when Hwacheoncheon Stream freezes over, visitors can catch cherry salmon and enjoy fun activities like sledding, bobsledding, and ice soccer.
Café culture is booming in South Korea, with 20,000 cafés in Seoul alone. One of the top spots for baked goods is Cafe Onion, with three locations across the city. Arrive early to avoid queues!
Some other top locations include: Soha Salt Pond Ikseo-dong, Bunker Company Apgujeong, and Birch Coffee.
