Gyeongju, South Korea, is an ancient capital city and was once the capital of Silla, Korea's longest-lasting dynasty. We've created a round-trip, one-day trip from Seoul to Gyeongju to experience the autumn leaves. Skip the hassle of traveling to Gyeongju yourself and enjoy a price that's even better than taking the KTX!
This day trip to Gyeongju, South Korea, allows you to experience the rich history of the 992-year-old Silla Dynasty, a city that fascinates even young Koreans. We'll take you to Bulguksa Temple, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Bulguksa Temple embodies the vibrant Buddhist culture of Silla and is considered a work of art by Koreans, making it one of the world's most iconic Buddhist temples.
The itinerary will also take you to Bomun Lake, a renowned Gyeongju attraction. This 500,000-pyeong artificial lake, built beneath the ancient ruins of Myeonghwasan Mountain, boasts a charming walking and cycling path, making it a popular hiking destination in the capital. Bomun Lake, known for its beautiful scenery year-round, now takes on a vibrant autumn feel beneath a sea of crimson leaves. The tour concludes with a visit to Ginkgo Avenue in front of Unification Hall, where you can admire a different kind of autumn beauty beneath the fading yellow ginkgo trees!
