While famous cities like Seoul and Busan often steal the spotlight, South Korea also boasts the beautiful and captivating thousand-year-old city of Gyeongju. If you get the chance to visit South Korea this autumn, be sure to include Gyeongju in your travel plans.
How can you get to Gyeongju?
If Seoul is a bustling and vibrant hub, then Gyeongju serves as a tranquil contrast, steeped in simple, timeless charm. Gyeongju is located in the heart of Gyeongsang Province, in the southeastern part of the Korean Peninsula. Whether you're traveling from Seoul or Busan, it's easy to reach this ancient capital by various means such as train, KTX high-speed train, or bus. Note that Gyeongju has two train stations: Geongju Station, which is 10 minutes from the city center, and SinGyeongju Station, located 30 minutes away by taxi.
Depending on your itinerary, you can choose your mode of transport and decide which station is most convenient for your schedule. For detailed travel plans, you can search on Google to get specific information.
To get to Gyeongju from Vietnam, you first need to book a flight to either Seoul or Busan, as both cities are easily accessible by land to Gyeongju. Direct flights are available from Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City to Seoul and Busan with several domestic airlines, offering affordable fares to meet diverse passenger needs.
