Lots of interesting historical sights, and a city small enough that you can really get a feel for it. Downside is that if you're a vegetarian there's not too many choices, except for the one excellent little place that makes falafel that I've reviewed elsewhere.
I used to live in Gyeongju so I know it well but I still enjoy going back to all the main tourist sites. My favorite places to go are within walking distance. There is Daereungwon near downtown and then you can walk to Cheomseongdae then walk over to the museum and end at Anapji pond. Parking at anapji is free but the other places will cost money. However, parking in Gyeongju is relatively cheap compared to other places in Korea. I highly recommend getting a rental car though as public transportation is slow and doesn't run as often as larger cities. I recommend eating Hanwoo beef near Bomun lake and eating in any of the restaurants that look tasty to you because most likely it will be delicious. You should also have bulgogi or bossam or ssambap while in Gyeongju and get the famous Kim so by the hanok village or get the gyeongju bbang at Hwarang bbang in downtown.
It didn't feel as safe as Seoul, and if you are the party sort, I'm not sure how much entertainment you could have at night. But tue city is gorgeous, a modern section with all the chains you need surrounded by various parks with giant burial mounds. No matter what direction you go, there will be a temple, museum, or tomb to explore, possibly all three. If you have any interest at all in Korean history, I /highly/ recommend it.
The historical sites and the atmosphere of the city is great. Really laid back. They have a lot of places to rent bikes and it is easy to get to a lot of sites that way. I feel like you haven't seen Korea until you have seen Gyeongju. The buses sometimes run infrequently so it is important to check the schedules when planning your day.
Really love it, especially that it is quiet and if you are looking for peace, this is a place for you to go to. The interesting sites are quite far away but is fairly accessible when you take the bus. Generally if you want to find nice food, the night market there has interesting delights at prices that are cheaper than those you would find in the big cities like seoul and busan. They have really famous bread there called gyeongju bread so it is a definite must try! Best scenery can be found on top of the Gyeongju Namsan, it is known as an open air museum and a wonderful hiking site.
Loved Gyeongju! It's a small city, so it's easy to get around to most of the major sites either by walking or biking (renting bikes is easy and cheap). If you love history, and are particularly interested in Korean history, this is the place to visit. I wish I could've stayed longer in order to see all fascinating historical sites that surround the city.
“Only 200 metres from bus stop that takes you to all the sites (bus 10 or 11), a 5 minute walk from Gyeongju train station and the market and in the center of lots of shops. Very clean and quiet,spacious room with fridge.”
“Spacious room, offer great coffee at the reception, free bottle drinks, near to Gyeongju sightseeing places.”
“This hotel is remodeled lately. So everything was really clean and new. The room was spacious and bedding was very good enough to be relaxed. Breakfast was also nice. Eventhough I stayed only one night, I could use a washing machine for free that was useful. Everything was exceptional for the price. Highly recommend.”
“Fantastic location, really near to station. Perfect for three nights stay. Comfy beds, modern guesthouse, value for money.”
“Great location, close to Gyeongju bus terminal and restaurants. Spacious room, clean and well equiped, very convenient. Complimentary popcorn and coffee for the guests.”
