Seoul Like a Local

Keen to explore a different side of Seoul? Like a Local is the book for you.

This isn't your ordinary travel guide. You won't find the N Seoul Tower or K-Star Road in these pages, because that's not where Seoulites hang out. Instead, you'll meet the locals at raucous barbecue joints, forward-thinking galleries, and underground music dens — and that's where this book takes you.

Turn the pages to discover:

• The small businesses and community strongholds that add character to this vibrant city, recommended by true locals
• 6 themed walking tours dedicated to specific experiences such as shopping for artisanal crafts and going on a typical night out
• A beautiful gift book for anyone seeking to explore Seoul
• Helpful what3word addresses, so you can pinpoint all the listed sights

Compiled by four proud Seoulites, this stylish travel guide is packed with Seoul's best experiences and secret spots, handily categorised to suit your mood and needs.

Whether you're a restless Seoulite on the hunt for a new hangout, or a visitor keen to discover a side you won't find in traditional guidebooks, Seoul Like a Local will give you all the inspiration you need.
