Seoul exit strategy
Decide whether you really need a car from Seoul. Many travelers do better taking KTX/intercity transport first, then renting locally.
- Seoul no-car final day
- KTX/intercity option
- or car pickup outside peak traffic
This is not a camping-first day; keep accommodation simple.
Central Seoul parking and traffic can erase the value of a car.
Gyeongju historic core
Park once near the historic core and walk/taxi instead of moving the car for every short hop.
- Daereungwon/Cheomseongdae-style historic zone
- Gyochon/Hwangnidan-gil area
- Donggung & Wolji evening
If camping outside the city, do not return too late unless check-in allows it.
Evening attraction parking can be crowded; paid public lots may be easier.
