A UNESCO royal tomb park in the middle of Gangnam's office district.
Seolleung is mostly office towers along Teheran-ro, but it hides one of Gangnam's best surprises: Seolleung and Jeongneung, a wooded park containing three Joseon royal tombs.
The tombs are part of the UNESCO World Heritage listing for the Royal Tombs of the Joseon Dynasty, and the park is a quiet escape from the traffic.
