South Korea and ZEN photos

Korea is a mountainous peninsula with a breathtaking mountain scenery and a ruggedly scenic coastline. The country has several national parks, renowned for their natural beauty and numerous ZEN temples. The Republic of Korea (South Korea) shares borders to the north with the demilitarised zone (separating it from the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea). The Japanese colonized Korea and Japanese rule in Korea continued until the end of the 2nd world war. Korea was divided into North Korea and South Korea and remains parted to this day. Temple stays, Hanji paper, ceramic pottery, seasonal festivals, Taekwando and the Korean cuisine are an integral part of Korean culture and are definitely interesting to experience. Do not miss sights of Seoul, Suwon, Cheonan, Mokpo, Bukhansan National Park, Gyeryongsan N.P., Pusan and volcanic island Jeju Do. With so much to offer, Korea is one of the best places to travel for people searching for a different and unique experience.
