(Baonghean.vn) - While it's springtime with warm sunshine in Vietnam these days, it's still winter in South Korea. However, that doesn't mean Seoul lacks charm and allure. The bare trees, the solemn spires unique to Northeast Asia, and the gently sloping streets... all contribute to the romantic atmosphere of the Land of Kimchi.
Here are some images of Seoul in the late winter days, captured by a reporter from Nghe An Newspaper:
 |
| The entrance gate to Gyeongbok Palace - built by the Joseon dynasty in 1395. |
 |
| The main hall of the Forbidden City |
 |
| Gyeongbok Palace comprises 11 buildings that symbolize a long-standing culture. |
 |
| According to traditional Korean beliefs, construction projects must meet the requirement of "facing the river and backed by the mountains," meaning the building's front faces the river and its back is against the mountains. |
 |
| The old charm remains. |
 |
| Gyeongbok Palace is always a place where tourists create lasting memories every time they visit Seoul. |
 |
| There's one place you absolutely can't miss when visiting Seoul in winter: the Seoul Tower and the Love Lock Garden. |
 |
| The Seoul Television Tower, standing at 236.7 meters, is located atop Namsan Mountain, which is 262 meters high. This is the highest point in the capital city. |
 |
| What's particularly special is that at the foot of the tower is a fence adorned with love locks. |
 |
| To symbolize their love, couples come here to write love messages in padlocks, expressing their eternal love. After writing the messages, the key is discarded. |
 |
| Interestingly, it's not just Korean couples and lovers who express their love in this way; many international tourists, including young people from Vietnam, have also shown their affection. |
 |
| These "trees" are love locks... |
