Seoul Off the Beaten Path Tips by jeaniek13

The places are not in Seoul--but a distance away. SORAK-SAN (MT. SORAK) in on the eastern coast of Korea. If you love to hike and eat raw fish, this is your place. You can go to Sok'cho, the city near Mt. Sorak, and walk by different vendors live catch and choose what you would like to eat. Then you can take the seafood to a local restaurant and they'll prepare it for you, at a cost of course. PUSAN, is in southeastern Seoul. It too is located on the coast and is considered the mainland's beach. It isn't that big, but can get jam packed during the summer months. You'd have a better time visiting CHEJU-DO (Cheju Island). On the island is Mt. Halla, lots of greenery complimented by the sandy beaches. There is another national park/mountain worth visiting: MT. CHIRI.
