South Korea is a country
swathed in green, prodding its stony fingers skyward, and the Koreans are a
people obsessed with nature, and with mountains in particular. Wherever you
travel, you'll see Koreans out in the open air, clad in the latest adventure
fashions, pushing ever onward and upward. With China looming to its west and Japan nudging it from the east, it's no wonder the country has played unwilling host to centuries of war games. But no matter how many times its neighbours try to swallow it, South Korea manages to survive intact. South Koreans attribute their indefatigable culture to the binding agents of Confucianism, language and pride. The stunning landscape has also played a big part in creating a cohesive Korean identity. |

Travel to Seoul - A beautiful and modern city -
Seoul is the capital of South Korea. With rich and unique culture and
art, world-class museums, historic attractions and architectures, luxury

one of the Asia's favorite business travel and leisure vacation
destinations. This Korean capital is also a shopping paradise with large
department stores, open markets and duty-free shops.

It is also the home for Korea's new international airport built on Yeongjong Island, which is expected to become a major transportation hub in Northeast Asia. Off the coast are numerous islands, some still uninhabited. Many people who live in Incheon make the arduous trek to Seoul each day. Conversely, many Seoulites flock here on the weekends to enjoy fresh fish and visit the islands. Travel to Ulsan - Ulsan is a metropolitan city in the southeast of Korea on the Sea of Japan. It is 70 kilometres north of Busan. Those who come to Ulsan are predominantly here to work for the large conglomerates or heavy industries (Hyundai Motors being one of the most notable) and to teach English as a foreign language. It is considered the industrial centre of the country with some guidebooks likening the city to Pittsburgh or Detroit in the USA. There is much truth in this view. Yet recently re-elected Mayor, Park-Maeng-woo, plans to establish an ‘Eco-polis’ based on the restoration of the Taewha river. In 2010 it will host World Environmental Day which should crown Ulsan's rebirth as an environmentally-friendly ecological city. |
