Daegu Travel Guide
South Korea
Daegu is an inland city in south-eastern South Korea, with a population of about 2.18 million. It is one of the country’s principal urban centres, set away from the coast and surrounded by the region’s hills and mountains.
Most international visitors arrive through Daegu International Airport, which serves the city directly. There are no notable beaches within 40 kilometres, so Daegu is better suited to an inland city break than a beach-focused visit.

Tipping: Tipping is not a standard practice in South Korea, and service charges are typically included in the bill at restaurants and hotels. Attempting to tip can sometimes be awkward or even refused. However, there are a few exceptions where small gratuities are appreciated but not expected.
