Seoul

Seoul is the capital and largest metropolis of South Korea, forming the heart of the Seoul Capital Area, which includes the surrounding Incheon metropolis and Gyeonggi province, the world's second largest metropolitan area with over 25.6 million people.

Situated on the Han River, Seoul's history stretches back more than 2,000 years when it was founded in 18 BCE by Baekje, one of the Three Kingdoms of Korea.

Seoul hosted the 1986 Asian Games, 1988 Summer Olympics, 2002 FIFA World Cup and the 2010 G-20 Seoul summit. A UNESCO City of Design, Seoul was named the 2010 World Design Capital. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Design_Capital

  • Sala Thai - Thai Restaurant (2nd Floor), TIBC1 wrote 6 years ago:
    The polygon for this Thai restaurant indicates it includes all of this apartment complex and then some. It should be shown as a tenant in one of the two high rise buildings without a separate identity other than a small part of the complex.
