When I say Korea, know that I am referring to South Korea by default. Of course, there would have been no confusion if there was no recent friendly meeting between North and South Korean leaders. True that the two places are now on excellent terms but South Korea is still the undisputed tourism hub. In recent years, the country has attracted special attention. This maybe solely because of social media sites and concentrated efforts by the Korean government to improve infrastructure as well as tourism.

A vacation in Korea is truly magical and diverse in every sense. Like every holiday trip, a Korean holiday demands a considerable amount of money so you better start saving up immediately. Buy points for Korea’s national flag carrier airline, Korean Air and embark on an adventure that you will cherish for life.
