A tailormade trip to South Korea would be incomplete without a visit to Gyeongju. Our luxury holidays to Gyeongju offer access to the ancient capital of the Silla Kingdom and a treasure trove of cultural heritage.
The Best of Gyeongju
Known as "the museum without walls," Gyeongju is home to numerous UNESCO World Heritage Sites, including Bulguksa Temple, a masterpiece of Buddhist architecture, and the Seokguram Grotto, housing a serene stone Buddha overlooking the East Sea. Explore the royal tombs of Tumuli Park, where grassy mounds hide the secrets of Silla royalty, and stroll through the scenic Anapji Pond, a tranquil spot that once served as a pleasure garden for the Silla kings. Gyeongju’s rich history and stunning landscapes offer a fascinating journey into Korea’s past.
It's possible to visit this ancient town on a day trip from Busan via the high-speed train (1 hour each way), or if you prefer to stay overnight, the Hilton Gyeongju offers comfortable and convenient accommodation.
