Mens department have lots of suits, blazers and coats but with the tailored cuts for a smart fitting look.
This cafe's location is very cool and offers you a good view over a part of Bukchon Hanok village. Be sure to snag a seat near the windows, though this might be difficult as they're quite popular.
Unlimited kimchi sides, get the traditional Korean dough soup (sujebi) where it's dough flakes are formed by hand. English menu is also available
Enjoy traditional Korean luncheon at the restaurant, Sancheon, which is famous for Korean traditional temple food. We are sure that you could have a memorable moment in Insadong. Подробнее.
Best mungbean pancake place! Ensure to have it with 'jangsoo' makguli, it's the best combination!
Loads of souvenir shops selling mass produced tat that will look authentic and original when you take it home.
We eat here EVERY TIME we are in Seoul. The Tteokgalbi (Korean Style Rib Steak) and Bossam (Steamed Pork) are must haves!
shrimp, avocado, and mango salad was delicious. good bread with fruit butter came with our meal too. :)
This place is must to visit .. Specially for green tea lovers .. Green tea in every thing (juices, sandwiches, cake ... Etc)
Loved the salmon natto bowl (13,000원)!There is no English menu though so you need to be able to read Korean. Will definitely come back for the donburi bowls!
A place to find local arts and crafts. Buy your souvenirs, check out art galleries, and dine here. The information center (100m from Ssamjigil towards the Jogyesa Temple) will help you get around.
Make sure you check the time table for the English guided tour if you want to go to the secret garden. The latest one is at 3.30 pm.
Kimchi jjigae (Korean pronunciation: [kimtɕʰi tɕ͈iɡɛ]) is a variety of jjigae, or stew-like Korean dish, made with kimchi and other ingredients, Подробнее.
The ultimate chicken in pot! You could try 1 pax dining if you have a huge appetite but suggest 2 or more to visit. Perfect dinner for colder months.
Really good establishment for ginseng chicken. Try the baby roast chicken as well. Modern decor for a restaurant that has been around since 1960. Make sure you come early as it closes early.
Korea House is an excellent example of traditional architecture. It is a traditional Korean court cuisine restaurant and culture center. Подробнее.

changing of guards ceremony was nice! at the same time, we had the chance to try hanbok, for free! :) we went there at 3pm, just in time for the 3:30-4 pm ceremony.
Korean street food snacks with a Western twist! The banana vinegar drink is one of the strangest and most interesting drinks I've ever tasted. Highly recommend it!
Well trained cats. 8000₩ for entrance which includes a drink and unlimited petting of the cute felines.
The best macaron in Seoul ^^ I love their pistachio and strawberry marshmallow macaron ^^
I loveeee their royal milk tea. MOCHI cream is delicious!!!! I had the green tea and coffeee both were gooodddd ^^
Not sure I would say it would be a hipster heaven- lots of vintage knock offs, but if you look carefully, you'll spot some for bargain.
Tourist hot spot, but the long lines move surprisingly fast and the wait is never too long. Their kimchi is RIDICULOUSLY garlicky and pungent – there's a reason they give you free gum at the end...
There is a second store not 5m away. The owners are the same but the menu, and more importantly the taste is a bit different. Facing the store, go to the one to the left. The lomein is good.
Add rice and noodles are free. When you go in lunch/dinner time, you may have to line up.
Traditional Korean place - take off your shoes and sit on the floor. They have an English menu with pictures. The noodle soup with dumplings and the cold spicy noodles were both great.
The roast chicken can be a bit dry but very tender. As for the ginseng chicken, the taste is blended to a mild but pleasant taste even for those who hate ginseng like myself. Try both if possible.
Great local place for cheap authentic Korean snack meals. Gimbap is yummy. So is the spicy ramen. Breakfast is very busy. Lots of ppl gt gimbap takeouts.
Best 'Gomtang (Beef bone soup)' in Seoul but poor service. If you can eat innards, get a 'Teuk (Special)' size. Pour a soup of Kimchi in Gomtang is a nice try. Ask your Kimchi soup refill if dried.
The food court is fantastic. Something for every taste, good quality, reasonable prices. Lunch time is super-busy so go early to get a table.
Dongdaemun Peacemarket is wholesale market about clothing. If you want to buy clothes at a reasonable price, I recomend you to go to this market.
Cheap, delicious and very famous in Samcheong-dong. Always full table and people lining up for take-away. Fried rice crackers 1000₩, spicy rice cakes 2000₩, fish cake 500₩, iced rice punch 1000₩.
While you can find lotsa different goods here from clothes to food, it is no Myeongdong or Dongdaemum, no trendy stuffs here.
You can learn everything about Korean history there. And hey, it's all free! Definitely a must see.
Decent coffee, but I think everything there is a bit overpriced. I would only really suggest going here if you care to visit a place unique in Seoul since all other locations are in NYC.
The drinks are so so and a bit pricy , but the atmosphere here is great. It's like they ransacked a chanwook park set and decorated the place. The rooftop is also nice in the spring and fall.
Modernized hanok tea room and small museum. Quiet and cozy, located off the main drag in Insadong. Black sesame seed rice cake is super delicious!
Gwanghwamun is the main and largest gate of Gyeongbokgung Palace. The royal changing of the guard ceremony is held in front of the main gate every hour from 10:00 to 15:00. It takes about 15 mins. Подробнее.
