Tap a region on the map or search for a name. Toggling the category button on and off updates the map to show pins and area pop-ups for that category. Initially, pins for nationally representative attractions are displayed; zooming in or clicking “Show All” reveals every attraction. Since the score is calculated by adding up only verified items, there is no upper limit.

We’ve gathered Korea’s tourist attractions in one place, organized by region and category. When you tap a province or city on the map, the area’s royal palaces, museums, beaches, and theme parks are displayed by category, and each card includes practical information—such as admission fees, operating hours, parking, and days off—assigned as scores for each item. Basic information on more than 600 tourist attractions nationwide is Korea Tourism Organization data, and for the 21 featured attractions we added descriptions and sources we checked ourselves. Collect the places you like with “Add”, then move on to booking.

🔢 Criteria Used to Rate Tourist Attractions on the Map

The scores assigned to tourist attractions nationwide are calculated by adding up only the verified items, and there is no upper limit. Therefore, a low total score does not necessarily mean the attraction is poor; rather, it means there are few items that can be verified using publicly available data, or that many items do not apply to the attraction in the first place.

The items are divided into four categories. Price: free admission, published fee schedules, who gets in free, and group discounts. Public Interest: whether it is a nationally designated heritage site and whether a public agency runs it directly. Convenience: published operating hours and closing days, parking, stroller and wheelchair routes, and an official website. Satisfaction: whether it is a top attraction nationwide, visitor numbers, night opening, year-round opening, and selection as one of the “Top 100 Korean Tourist Attractions.”

Each entry on the tourist attractions map is displayed in one of three states: solid-colored entries are confirmed, those outlined in a dotted line are unconfirmed, and those stamped in gray with - do not apply to that facility. A public interest score of 0 for a privately operated theme park does not mean points were deducted; it simply means the item does not apply.

🔣 FAQ

No. It means there are many verified items. Since the scoring system favors public facilities that operate for free and publicly disclose their hours and days off, private facilities receive lower scores even if they meet the same criteria. The fact that the “public nature” column for private theme parks is left blank in gray does not mean points were deducted; it simply means there is no applicable information. Please view the scores as a checklist rather than a direct comparison.

The Korea Tourism Organization’s TourAPI is updated early every Monday morning, but there are times when the source data is updated late. For locations where rates change frequently, it’s safer to double-check the official website along with the original text shown on the card. In particular, beach opening periods and special exhibition fees change every year.

We maintain a list of Korean tourist attractions for which search volume and visitor demand have been verified. We also incorporate the “Top 100 Korean Tourist Attractions,” selected every two years by the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism and the Korea Tourism Organization, and assign satisfaction scores to the selected sites. Among these, we have included original descriptions and source links for the 21 representative sites in each category.

We did not include entries without photos or coordinates, or places in other categories such as shopping and restaurants. Some places were cut to balance the number of entries per region, so their absence does not mean they are of lesser value.
