Highlights

This guided tour departs from one of three spots — Busan Station, Seomyeon Station or Haeundae Station — and explores Gyeongju, the thousand-year-old capital of Silla, in one day. Visit Gyeongju's key sights in one itinerary: UNESCO World Heritage Bulguksa Temple, the Silla royal tombs of Daereungwon, Gyeongju National Museum and the restored wooden Woljeonggyo Bridge. At Gyochon Hanok Village, look around the Choi family house and make traditional Korean rice cakes yourself. It's a no-shopping tour focused on sightseeing and cultural experiences.

Program

Depart from Busan and head to Gyeongju
via Ahopsan Forest

Board in turn at Busan subway station Exit 4 at 8:10 AM, Seomyeon Station Exit 4 at 8:30 AM and Haeundae Station Exit 5 at 9:10 AM. First, stop at Ahopsan Forest, a 400-year-old bamboo forest featured in many Korean dramas and films. Forest admission is not included, so those not entering can relax at a nearby cafe. Lunch is at a local restaurant for about 1 hour and is paid separately.

Discover Silla Buddhist architecture at Bulguksa

Admire the beauty of Silla-era Buddhist architecture at UNESCO World Heritage Bulguksa Temple. Explore the old stone pagodas and quiet courtyards surrounded by nature with your guide.

Make rice cakes at Gyochon Hanok Village and walk Daereungwon

Stroll through Gyochon Hanok Village, home to the Choi family house, and make traditional Korean rice cakes yourself at Gyochon Garam. Then tour Daereungwon with its Silla royal tombs and walk Hwangnidan-gil, lined with cafes in renovated hanok houses.

End the day at Gyeongju National Museum and Woljeonggyo Bridge

View precious artifacts of the Silla kingdom at Gyeongju National Museum. If you'd prefer to see Donggung Palace and Wolji Pond instead, you can visit for an extra 3,000 KRW per person. Finally, walk across the beautifully restored wooden Woljeonggyo Bridge to end your day in Gyeongju before returning to Busan.
