This English-guided small-group tour from Busan covers seven highlights of Gyeongju, the "museum without walls", in one day. Start at Daewangam Park in Ulsan, where rocks meet the sea, then visit Bulguksa Temple with its Dabotap and Seokgatap pagodas, Hwangnidan-gil, famous for trendy shops and 10-won bread, and the Daereungwon royal tombs of Silla. Finish with Cheomseongdae, the oldest observatory in Asia, Gyochon Hanok Village with the house of the wealthy Choi family, and Woljeonggyo, Korea's largest wooden bridge — history and culture from Silla to Joseon all at once.
