As the pleasant autumn weather continues, various date courses that allow couples to explore Seoul on foot are gaining popularity. With a growing preference for outdoor activities over indoor dates, integrated courses connecting major Seoul landmarks like Namdaemun Market, Namsan, Haebangchon, and the Dongdaemun City Wall are drawing significant attention.
Specific recommended routes include exploring Namdaemun Market, visiting a cafe near Hoehyeon Station, strolling along the Namsan Dulle-gil trail, and enjoying the sunset in Haebangchon. Additionally, the Seoul night bus tour, approximately 90 minutes long, departs from Gwanghwamun, crosses various Han River bridges, and ascends to N Seoul Tower, offering a unique experience to admire both the Han River and Namsan nightscapes. Another suggested half-day course for autumn involves walking the Dongdaemun City Wall trail from Dongdaemun Station, followed by a meal at Jinokhwa Halmae Dakkhanmari and a coffee at Starbucks Gwangjang Market.
Bloggers note that despite some walking, these courses are suitable for a full day's date, with ample opportunities to rest at restaurants or cafes. They highlight that the 25-minute photo stop at N Seoul Tower during the night bus tour creates memorable moments for couples, and the Seoul City Wall trail, with its blend of ancient fortifications and modern city views, evokes a feeling of being on a distant trip.
