Seoul is a booming metropolis of 10 million people. While it was interesting to see the comparison between the countries of Southeast Asia, Seoul does not offer as many things that would be of interest to the tourist. We took the city tour on a hop-on, hop-off bus which gave us a good bird's eye view of the various parts of the city. It also allowed us to stop at one of the main palaces that dates back to the 1400's. We had time to visit three of these palaces while we in Seoul but, in my personal view, the architecture is a copy of the temples of the Chinese Dynasties although not as beautiful or intricate. Nevertheless, we enjoyed our time in the city but it was the coldest place we visited and the combination wind and temperatures near the freezing mark made me start to long for Arizona.
