❄️ Best Places to Experience Snow in Seoul! ❄️ Seoul is a winter wonderland when the snow falls, transforming its historic landmarks and urban landscapes into dreamy scenes straight out of a storybook. Here’s where to soak up the magic: 1️⃣ Lotte World & Seokchon Lake The vibrant Lotte World, a massive indoor/outdoor amusement park, sparkles with festive lights in winter. Seokchon Lake, right next door, is a peaceful spot where you can see snow-draped trees mirrored in its frozen waters—a striking contrast to the modern skyline. 2️⃣ Deoksugung Palace This small but stunning palace is famous for its blend of traditional Korean and Western-style architecture. Covered in snow, its royal halls and stone paths feel like a portal to another era. Don’t miss the scenic Deoksugung Stone Wall Road nearby, perfect for a winter stroll. 3️⃣ Hangang River Snow by the Hangang River? Yes, please! Enjoy panoramic views from one of the 12 riverside parks or try your hand at winter sports like ice skating nearby. It’s the perfect mix of nature and urban energy. 4️⃣ Secret Garden of Changdeokgung Palace Known as Huwon, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is breathtaking year-round, but winter adds a special charm. The snow-covered pavilions and frozen lotus ponds look like a classical Korean painting brought to life. 5️⃣ Seoul Olympic Park Built for the 1988 Olympics, this massive park is a favorite for photographers when it snows. Wander through its open fields, admire the famous “One Tree Hill,” and enjoy its serene winter atmosphere. 6️⃣ Gyeongbokgung Palace The grandest of Seoul’s palaces, Gyeongbokgung is even more majestic under a blanket of snow. Walk through its ancient courtyards and imagine the Joseon kings marveling at the same snowy views centuries ago. 7️⃣ Namsan Tower (N Seoul Tower) For a stunning view of the entire city, head up to Namsan Tower. When Seoul is dusted with snow, the vista from this iconic landmark is absolutely unforgettable. The snowy trails of Namsan Park leading up to the tower are a bonus for nature lovers.
