South Korea

Welcome to South Korea

Capital of South Korea: Seoul
Population of South Korea: 50.6 million - 13th in Asia
Size of South Korea: 100,210 km2 - 30th in Asia
Languages in South Korea: Korean

Though it boasts a history spanning thousands of years, South Korea ranks among the world's most urbanized and modernized countries, with nearly half of its population living in high-rises concentrated in the national capital. In this land of pristine mountain scenery, many South Korea vacations involve some form of winter sports - not surprising for the country that hosted the 2018 Winter Olympics. Curious travelers wishing to get to know South Korea's heart and soul spend only a small part of their holiday in big cities like Busan and Seoul, devoting much of their attention to the tranquil countryside that seems largely untouched by the 21st century.
