You know those charming wooden homes that you often see in Korean dramas? Well, they're known as Hanoks and the next time you plan a trip to South Korea, why not check yourself into one for a full-on Korean experience. Plus, it’s now easier than ever before to book a stay in one of these authentic houses with the Korean Tourism Organization's (KTO) official list of certified Hanok houses. There's a total of 340, ensuring you have plenty of choice.

Some of these Hanok's can be hundreds of years old, yet most have been carefully renovated. That means you can enjoy modern home comforts like TV and Western-style toilets but in a home that has retained authentic Korean details, such as antique furniture, paper-pasted windows and wooden sliding doors. What’s more, some houses really allow you to embrace the local culture by offering classes on pottery making and Korean folk games.

When booking your stay, be sure to check out the nearby attractions and if you’re fussy what type of toilet's are available (some homes still retain the original plumbing). Go here to see a full list of Hanok stays.
