Are you looking for the best Dakgalbi (Chicken Ribs) restaurant? I recommend a popular restaurant on social media that is usually very crowded with customers! Dakgalbi (닭갈비, Chicken Ribs), also known as spicy stir-fried chicken, is a beloved Korean dish that has gained popularity worldwide. It consists of diced chicken that is marinated and stir-fried in a delicious gochujang-based sauce, alongside a variety of vegetables such as sweet potatoes, cabbage, perilla leaves, scallions, and tteok (rice cake). Despite its name, Dakgalbi (닭갈비, Chicken Ribs) is not actually made with chicken ribs. Instead, the dish gained its moniker as a post-War nickname. When you visit a Dakgalbi (닭갈비, Chicken Ribs) restaurant, you'll likely notice round hot plates built into the tables, where the dish is cooked to perfection. Served alongside the spicy chicken are lettuce and perilla leaves, which are used as ssam (wrap) vegetables.

The 15kg iron plate allows diners to fully taste the original flavor of the Dakgalbi (닭갈비, Chicken Ribs), as it evenly cooks the dish without burning the surface. This is one of the reasons why "Choigangdalin Chuncheon Dakgalbi Makguksu Myeongdong Branch" is recognized as a top restaurant for Dakgalbi (닭갈비, Chicken Ribs).  The "Dakgalbi (닭갈비, Chicken Ribs)" marinated in spicy sauce is slowly cooked to avoid burning.

Mt. Namsan is a symbolic mountain located at the center of Seoul. Although not as high as other surrounding mountains, Mt. Namsan is a very popular nonetheless as a resting site.

Bukaksan, Mt. Inwangsan, Mt. Naksan and Mt. Namsan. On Namsan peak, five beacons were built to report the news from local governments to the central government with a five-signal system. Also on the top of Mt. Namsan, there is the Palgakjeong Pavilion, which has a fantastic view. At Seoul Tower (479.7m), you can view the whole landscape of Seoul and the West Sea beyond Incheon. The rotating restaurant in the Seoul Tower also boasts excellent views. With excellent night view, you should try having dinner at the tower. It would be a great experience to visit Namsangol Traditional Korean Village which is a village of 5 traditional Korean houses.

On August 1st, 2009, the redesigned Gwanghwamun Square opened to the public. With the inauguration of the square, Sejong-ro, located at the center of the 600-year-old historic city of Seoul, was transformed into a human-centered space that harmonizes with the beautiful scenery of Gyeongbokgung Palace and Bukaksan Mountain. The close to 20,000m2 Gwanghwamun Square is located at the center of Sejong-ro which connects Gwanghwamun Gate and Cheonggye Square.

Yeouido Park is a large recreational area located on Yeouido Island in the central part of Seoul. It was once originally covered with black asphalt, and people frequented the place for bicycling and roller-skating. The construction began in 1997, and opened officially in February 1999. It is now the place where many people in the city come to rest and enjoy strolling around, play sports, and cultural events. The park is divided into theme-based sections: the Traditional Korean Forest, Grass Square, Culture Square, and Nature’s Ecosystem Forest. In the Traditional Korean Forest, only traditional Korean trees are planted, and it has a pond and an octagonal pavilion, with a trail walk that completes the feel of an elegant Korean garden. Grass Square has a low hill, with grass field and various trails, and nearby there are evergreens and deciduous trees to reflect the changing of the seasons. Many performances and events are held at the Cultural Square, and because there are many zelkova trees lined up nearby, it is a great place to rest. One particular part of the park that is most enjoyed is the Nature’s Ecosystem Forest – it is where you can observe nature and learn from an ecologically sensitive pond and forest, right in the middle of the city. Composed of a swamp area, waterline area, grassland area, and a forest, you can observe various kinds of life forms living in these areas. One of the must-see areas is the Yunjunro Street, behind the National Assembly Building. This place is famous for having the loveliest cherry blossom street in Seoul. Cherry blossom trees, 30 to 40 years old, line up for about 6km, and is very popular in the spring.
