Seoul

...Directly behind the Seoul City Wall Museum, you'll find this trail which runs along the old city wall. It is quite peaceful and quaint, even though it's surrounded by one of the largest cities in the world. The views backwards of the city are amazing, and more wonderful views await you as you reach the top.
