Climb Namsan Seoul Tower to enjoy the night view

N Seoul Tower lights, Gyeongbokgung's palace walls, Bukchon hanok rooftops; Hangang picnics and evening cruises, Gwangjang's mung-bean pancakes, a Korean BBQ feast and a bowl of samgyetang—Seoul packs palaces, mountain fortress walls and late-night eateries into one city. These 50 won't fit a first trip, and return visitors will tick a few more.
