No surprises that we are all planning our next vacation with anticipated glee. But contained in the excitement to travel is a big fear that we are going “out into the world”. Naturally, the choice of place to holiday will be one that has checked all the boxes in its measures to keep one safe- in every way. No country better emulates this than South Korea. It has put together formidable measures to assuage the fears of visitors and citizens and local businesses and tourist spots.
Three offerings of South Korea that are as unique as they are unforgettable: experiencing calmness at a Templestay or a Hanok Stay (traditional Korean house) or simply exploring nature by walking through healing forests and trails. You are guaranteed to find incomparable peace - both externally and within after these experiences.
STAY IN A KOREAN HANOK
These traditional Korean houses are built in a specific architectural style designed to maintain balance with the surrounding environment (mountains, lakes, space, land contours) and are constructed using elements such as long curved roofs and alternating ondol and maru flooring that help keep the home warm in winters and cool in the summers.
Recently, Hanok houses have become very trendy as not only are they historical and beautiful, they are also very eco-friendly and sustainable by using natural building materials (wood, clay, paper, stone) and harnessing natural resources such as the sun for heating. Kids can enjoy the surroundings aplenty with nature and beauty and traditional games. Mealtimes are fun because of a unique food spread which is diverse and enthralling. You learn so much about Korean culture just through how they cook, present and eat food.
