Day 1
Shanghai, China
Shanghai is a city of striking contrasts, where historic lanes meet a skyline that ranks among the world’s most recognizable. Walk the Bund for views across the Huangpu to Pudong’s soaring towers, then explore the former French Concession’s tree-lined streets. At Yu Garden, classical pavilions and rockeries offer a quieter counterpoint to the city’s pace. Allow time for a meal: Shanghai’s restaurants range from traditional xiaolongbao shops to contemporary kitchens.

Day 2
Jeju Island, Korea
Seogwipo sits on Jeju Island’s southern coast, framed by volcanic cliffs and the Korea Strait. Jeongbang Falls plunges directly into the sea, while Cheonjiyeon Falls rewards a short walk through a wooded gorge. Follow a section of the Jeju Olle Trail for coastal views. At Seogwipo Maeil Olle Market, browse seafood and island-grown produce. In clear weather, Hallasan rises inland above the island’s lava-stone landscape.
-
Day 3
Hakata-Fukuoka City, Japan
Fukuoka is Kyushu’s largest city, a compact gateway where old Hakata meets modern Japan. Hakata’s shrines, covered shopping arcades and lively yatai food stalls reveal its character. Try famed tonkotsu ramen, then visit Ohori Park, where a broad lake lies beside Fukuoka Castle’s ruins. Efficient buses and subway connections make it easy to balance heritage, waterfront walks and contemporary city life.

Day 7
Busan, Korea
Busan pairs the scale of a modern port city with easy access to temples, markets and broad beaches. Visit Gamcheon Culture Village, browse Jagalchi Fish Market or ride Songdo’s cable car over the sea. The city’s best-known sights are spread across several districts, so plan your day around one area. For a quieter pause, visit Beomeosa Temple on the forested slopes of Geumjeongsan.
