I’m a local Korean who had lived in Poland, China, Taiwan, and Vietnam, and now I’ve settled down in Korea.
I love traveling and I want to share the beauty of Korea with visitors from around the world.
Especially, I hope more people will discover the charm of Suwon, the city I live in.

Tour description
Let’s walk together through Suwon’s UNESCO World Heritage fortress! We start at Janganmun Gate, the great north gate, and finish at Changnyongmun Gate on the east side.
Along the way, I will share stories about King Jeongjo, the history of the walls, and daily life in Suwon. You will discover secret details of the fortress, enjoy the best photo spots, and hear about local food like Suwon galbi and fried chicken.
This tour is not only about history, but about feeling the life of a city where past and present meet. If you want to go beyond Seoul and enjoy a true Korean experience, Suwon is waiting for you.
Book now and make your own story inside the fortress!
Our walk is tip-based, meaning you decide the value at the end!
