Visit United Nations Memorial Cemetery
Start your day with a visit to the United Nations Memorial Cemetery, a serene and beautifully maintained park honoring the soldiers from 16 nations who sacrificed their lives during the Korean War. Stroll through the peaceful grounds lined with fluttering flags, manicured lawns, and memorial stones that reflect both gratitude and hope for peace.
