| National Hanguel Museum |
One place to visit in Seoul if you have some extra time is the National Hanguel Museum. If you can't read Korean, taking a look around this place won't take more than an hour. If you can read Korean, and you're a huge art enthusiast, you'll spend two to three hours here. Nevertheless, even if you don't know the language, you can browse it if you have some free time after looking around the National Museum of Korea. However, since the National Museum of Korea is a lot bigger, I would save half a day for that alone. I recommend visiting this place and then going to the Yongsan Family Park right after. Here are some of my favorite artifacts at the museum:
