Cheap Korea Flights

Korea is a nation currently divided into 2 states – North Korea and South Korea. South Korea is officially known as the Republic of Korea, while North Korea is known as the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea. This Asian civilization is bordered by both China and Russia. Korea is abundant in historical sites and fortresses, temples and palaces (many of which have been declared UNESCO World Heritage Sites) can be found throughout the country. Korea is one of the most mountainous regions in the world, and the coastline has beaches scattered throughout. In addition to the rich heritage sites and beautiful natural resources, Korea is also a modern marvel. Futuristic skyscrapers and a buzz of activity characterize cities such as the capital, Seoul. Korea has a large population – North and South Korea combined house approximately 73 million people. The majority of these people live in South Korea (about 50 million). Korean is the most widely spoken language in the country but, because of its proximity to and links with China, Mandarin does also feature somewhat.
