Since when I am in South Korea, I am having problem about
language barrier that is why I feel a kind of hindrance in my
mind every time whenever I decided to explore various cities of Korea. I live in Ansan a small city which is growing rapidly and it is located near Seoul and luckily Seoul Metro Subway covers this city as well.
Seoul being the real
attraction of South Korea is always remained undiscovered whenever I visited it
even though if I had leisure time.
My curiosity to explore and go wild to see and experience new
made me to use many touring applications in my phone to discover Seoul more and
more, but it was somehow not satisfactory or you may say not up to my own
expectations.
But then as KTO member I was asked to use “Seoul Walking Tour”
App, which is unique of its kind and with some new concepts.
This application
is developed by Korean Tourism Organization KTO so it is especially for
tourists and is authentic enough to be trusted, followed and recommended.

I personally think that one cannot complete this walk in one
day. If you really want to enjoy each
and every tourist spot then you have to use this app again and again.
Having this installed in your phone you feel like you have
conquered the downtown of Seoul, it covers mainly three regions each have many
places which are important and famous with respect to tourism.
Cheonggye Plaza
Gwangtonggyo Bridge
Jeongjo
Neunghaeng Banchado
Supyogyo Bridge Site
Ogansugyo Bridge
2.
Jongno
Bosingak
Pavilion
Yukuijeon
Tapgol Park
Insa-dong
Jogyesa Temple
Postal Memorial
Hall
3.
Gwanghwamun Plaza.
Seoul City Hall
Gwanghwamun Plaza
National Museum of Korean Contemporary History
Seoul Museum of History
Jeongdong-gils Cheon
Each of these places is worth seeing and
well recommended on internet by tourists.
If you do not have Seoul Walking tour app then
I am afraid that you have to plan separately for each place to visit but
through this useful app in your phone you will be able to manage your short
visit of Seoul into highly exploring and attractive one as it guides you thoroughly
and tells exactly where to go and what to see. So nothing will be missed in
your tour.
Another unique feature of this application is the Audio files having the imp info and guidelines about the place you are visiting. This helps you a lot and makes the application more easy to use you just have to select and listen.
This app also includes important and detailed info about
each place you are visiting. Information includes almost every thing you may need to know about the attraction you are visiting from history to the no of visitors. it also tells you about the fee of entrance into any place if there so you may also manage your budget if touring in groups.
It shows you the map of the place you are heading to so you are not lost anywhere. This map is precise as shown in the screenshot.

I personally have been in Cheonggye Plaza, Gwanghwamun
Plaza and Seoul City Hall and so almost
all related areas nearby in all directions.
