Palaces, city neighbourhoods and mountain scenery.
Use Seoul as an easy-to-understand starting base, then choose a second region if you have time. Palace visits and neighbourhood walks combine naturally; mountain parks and Jeju deserve separate planning days.

How to prepare · 4 steps
- Read the eligibility guide and check whether your entry status requires a declaration.
- Prepare your passport and email, arrival date and flight or vessel, and address in Korea.
- Choose the individual declaration and follow the passport, traveller and journey fields on the official portal.

BEFORE YOU CHOOSE
A few useful answers.
What can I try for free?
Explore 10 South Korea places, open place cards and Google Maps links, switch place-card language, and keep favourites in this browser. Map-file downloads are not included in the free preview.
Can I buy the full collection today?
Not yet. “Buy now” currently opens a clearly marked test checkout. No money or payment details are collected, and no order is created.
Will the maps work offline or give directions?
The planned KML/KMZ files contain place information; they do not include offline background maps or turn-by-turn navigation. Supported apps and import instructions will be confirmed for the paid release.
How should I use the location information?
Each free card shows its review status. These new map records still need place-specific source checks. Check current access, weather and opening conditions before travelling. A place pin is not always a verified parking or visitor entrance.
