Seoul Wellness Travel Week runs from October 24 through November 4, 2026, across Gangnam and other parts of the city. The city's official notice groups activities around rest, food and arts. Different venues have different dates and admission rules.
Free hanji-lantern display: At Pilgyeongjae, a traditional Korean house in Suseo-dong, Gangnam, the courtyard hosts the exhibition 'Jiwoo (Paper House)' and related lantern works from October 26 to November 4. The official schedule lists 12 noon to 10 pm, with illumination from 6 pm. The display is free and open without a restaurant reservation, including to people who are not dining there; this does not make restaurant meals free.
Evening temple audio meditation: From October 26 to November 4, 6–8:30 pm, Bongeunsa, Jogyesa and Hwagyesa offer self-guided audio meditation walks. Seoul's notice describes Korean and English guidance through the TripAudio app or on-site QR codes. Participation is free and needs no advance booking. At Bongeunsa, groups of five or fewer may be asked to start in sequence on narrow routes under staff guidance.
Special paid or reservable activities: Eight venues from the Seoul Wellness Tourism 100 selection offer experiences October 29–November 4. Prices, sessions and available places differ by programme and must be checked on the official event website. The Bongeunsa yoga and meditation sessions from October 24–25 belong to the past opening weekend, not the remaining period.
