Share the Passion:

"Seoul is famous for its skyscrapers and technology, but travelers mainly rave about the traditions and cuisine of the South Korean capital. For a unique experience, the volcanic Jeju Island has folk villages, and museums. Currently popular for pre- & post-cruise stays, it’s best to visit this friendly country before it’s on the top of everyone's bucket list!"
