Hwaseong Fortress & Korean Folk Village tour from Seoul
Hwaseong Fortress & Korean Folk Village tour from Seoul★★★★★★★★★★ 4.00 (11)8hThis eight-hour coach tour from Seoul visits Hwaseong Fortress, a UNESCO World Heritage site in Suwon built between 1794 and 1796, and the Korean Folk Village, an open-air museum of over 200 reconstructed Joseon-era homes.
