Workation in Gyeongju: the essentials
For close to a thousand years Gyeongju was the capital of Silla, and grassy royal burial mounds still stand between the streets of its centre. Bulguksa temple and the Seokguram grotto, both UNESCO sites, lie in the hills to the southeast, and Hwangnidan-gil is the renovated hanok street that draws young Koreans to its cafés. The municipality reaches the East Sea, but the historic core is inland. KTX trains take about 30 minutes to Busan, and Pohang Gyeongju Airport is about 24 km away. Evenings are quiet outside the tourist streets, and you will mostly work from cafés or your apartment.
