Travel and sightseeing
Sights, views, tickets and souvenirs, and the ways to travel.
Many travel words are built from the same few pieces: 지 is a place (관광지, 여행지, 유적지), 객 a visitor (관광객), and 소 an office or booth (매표소, 안내소). Learn the pieces and new words explain themselves. Korean also separates two kinds of view: 경치 is natural scenery, while 야경 is a city lit up at night.
