Culture & nights
Travel tips
- 01
Remove shoes before temple inner shrines and home entrances in South Korea — street footwear stays outside.
- 02
Keep voices low in temples, trains, and residential lanes — volume is noticed more than crowd size.
- 03
Queue patiently at ticket counters; don't cut lines at busy sights like heritage parks in South Korea.
- 04
Ask before photographing monks, worshippers, or village homes — a quiet nod beats a surprise flash.
- 05
Carry litter off beaches and heritage walks in South Korea until you find a bin — leave no plastic behind.
- 06
Pack a light cotton stole or scarf — covered shoulders and knees are expected at most sacred sites.
- 07
Bargain calmly at markets; a smile and a polite walk-away work better than raised voices.
- 08
Hand cash and food with your right hand where local custom matters at small eateries and guesthouses.
- 09
Tip modestly for good service, but don't shout or toss coins — calm courtesy represents India well abroad.
