3. Seoul, South Korea
Love a bit of K-Pop? The international appetite for Korean pop culture has brought a lot more tourists to Seoul in recent years. The global popularity of PSY's 'Gangnam Style' has spawned tours which visitors adore, while shopping here is blissfully duty-free, attracting a lot of Chinese holidaymakers in search of a bargain. Despite this boom, there are still plenty of hotel rooms to go around, since the city has been fast at work building budget accomodation to make sure people have a place to stay that won’t break the bank.
