Travel by season (best countries, cities and landmarks)

Pick a season or month to get countries and cities that are great to visit then, with must-see landmarks. Filter by continent, search by country, city or landmark, and jump to the world map for location and details.

Season

Seasons follow the calendar months for travelers leaving Korea. In the Southern Hemisphere (Australia, South America, southern Africa…) local seasons are reversed, so read the note on each card. Best times are general trends; weather, events and entry rules change every year.

Whether a country is open to travel and its advisory level change often. Check the latest notice for your destination on the Korean Ministry of Foreign Affairs travel-safety site (in Korean) before you go. Open the MOFA travel-safety site
