Seoul trip with foreigners in Korea

I went Seoul trip with foreigners who live in Korea.
There were some half koreans, foreign workers and students who are studying in Korea.
It was great oppertunity to meet those people. Korea is little conservative country because of confucianism culture. According to Korean reserch site, one out of ten people marry with foreigner. So, it means Korea is becoming a multicultural society like USA or Canada.
I felt more friendly with foreigners and so do my friends.
I hope to get this kind of oppertunity more and more. It will help to adapt multicultural society.

1. The national museum in Korea
The National Museum of Korea preserve, to exhibit, and to interpret korean cultural heritage and it is international scale. There is some programs for foreign visitors. It will be very helpful for them to know about korean history and heritage. It also has Asia heritages. Visitors can understand both the common and diverse features of various Asian cultures.
It's also free to look around the exibition.


2. Namsan tower ( N Seoul tower )
Namsan tower is a symbol of Seoul and the highest place where you can see the most beautiful scenery of Seoul. We can experience new cultural arts , teddy bear exibition an colorful lightening at night. However, There is the most beautiful and romantic place in Namsan tower.
Roof terrace is the symbol of romantic couples love. There are a lot of couples came here and keep terrace lock. and couples write some message about their love.








3. Korea cultural Heritage Foundation ( Korean house)
Korean house is where you can enjoy Korea's traditional beauty via court food, high quality traditional culture goods, folk performances, traditional weddings and so on. In here, Some people made a Korean traditional mask and the other group made traditional paper mirror. It's the best place to experience our culture.
