Gyeongju itineraries

Silla on Foot

No car needed. The royal tombs, Cheomseongdae, Gyochon village and the museum are all within walking distance, and Wolji lights up at dusk.

Tohamsan & Bomun Lake

Day one is two mountain temples and a lake walk; day two is the temple sites east of downtown at an easy pace. The classic overnight with a Bomun hotel bed.

Bomun Family Three Days

One day for the amusement park, one for birds and the lake, one for temples. Just one big thing a day so the kids never run out of steam.
