Myeongdong Alışveriş Caddesi

One of Seoul's primary shopping districts, Myeongdong shopping street, is a hive of activity with tourists and locals flitting from store to store, bustling and buying. Bright neon signs beckon and call at all hours of the day in every season. It is a true shopping mecca.

Packed with shops featuring popular Korean brands, you can find every cosmetic product under the sun along this shopping street. The Korean beauty industry has now garnered worldwide fame, a trend reflected in store after store selling Korean skincare and cosmetic products. Other than beauty products, brand-name shops, and fashion apparel stores also line this street, making it impossible to come and leave empty-handed.

Bu alışveriş caddesinde yemek tezgahlarının da yeri var. Baharatlı kızarmış tavuk, pirinç kekleri, şiş şiş, omlet burger, tavada kızartılmış erişte ve muzlu krep gibi yerel atıştırmalıklar sıcak servis edilir. Soğuk içecekler ve soğuk tatlılar da yaygın olarak bulunur - sıcak bir yaz gününde alışveriş yapıyorsanız hızlı bir ferahlık için mükemmeldir.

Tips: While there are so many foods in Myeong Dong, you can’t miss local’s favorite Kalguksu, knife-cut noodles with rich broth.

Myeongdong Cathedral

A spiritual heartbeat in the heartbeat of Myeongdong, the Myeongdong Cathedral stands as a testament to faith and architectural grandeur in South Korea.

Standing with its Neo-Gothic structure, the cathedral's stunning spires and exquisite stained glass windows have made it not only a sanctuary for worshippers but also a favorite spot for tourists. Before its iconic status as Seoul’s spiritual center, Myeongdong Cathedral was the birthplace of the Roman Catholic Church community in Korea, having witnessed numerous historical events since its completion in 1898.

Within its sacred walls, you'll find a rich tapestry of history, faith, and art. The cathedral, with its peaceful ambiance, offers a stark contrast to the busy Myeongdong shopping district just outside its gates. As the sun sets, the cathedral is bathed in a warm, golden light, providing a picturesque view and a moment of serene reflection.

Tips: If visiting during a service, remember to maintain silence and respect the sanctity of the place. It's also a great spot to experience a traditional Korean Catholic mass.

Seul N Kulesi

Seul N Kulesi, Seul'ün küresel bir dönüm noktası ve sembolüdür.

236 metre yüksekliğinde ve Namsan Dağı'nın tepesinde görkemli bir şekilde tünemiş olan Kule, Seul'ün 360 panoramik manzarasıyla sizi büyülemeye yemin ediyor. Seul'ün en popüler turistik yerlerinden biri olmadan önce, Seul N Kulesi başlangıçta bir radyo, televizyon, yayın ve iletişim kulesiydi. Bina 4 kata yayılıyor ve herkes için üç bölümden oluşuyor: N Lobby, N Plaza ve N Tower Seoul.

Kendinizi Gözlemevi, Canlı Müze ve Çocuk Tiyatrosu gibi ilgi çekici yerlere tamamen dalmış olarak bulun. Belki siz de yüzlerce aşk buketi arasında aşkınızı ilan etmek veya Dilek Göleti'nde bir dilek kuyusu dilemek isteyebilirsiniz. Bununla birlikte, hiçbir şey, ziyaretinizi sonlandırmak için 36 LCD Ekran aracılığıyla Kore'nin 600 yıllık zengin tarihinin dijital vitrini ile birlikte Seul'ün gözlem güvertesinden parlak bir şekilde aydınlatılmış gece manzarasının yerini tutamaz.

Tips: Lovebirds can hang a love padlock with their initials to the fence around the plaza as a symbol of eternal love.

Namsangol Hanok Village

Tucked away at the foot of Namsan Mountain, Namsangol Hanok Village offers a picturesque escape to Korea's traditional roots amidst the sprawling urban jungle of Seoul.

This village, meticulously restored and preserved, showcases five traditional Korean houses from the Joseon Dynasty. These homes, varying in size and status, provide visitors with a glimpse of the daily life and architectural brilliance of ancient Korea. But the village is more than just houses; it's an immersive experience. Meander through the tranquil pond, the pavilion, and the time capsule plaza, and you'll feel like you've stepped back in time.

Craft workshops, traditional games, and performances further enrich the visitor's experience. Whether it's watching a traditional Korean wedding ceremony or trying your hand at archery, Namsangol Hanok Village promises a unique and culturally rich experience.

Tips: Don't miss the traditional tea ceremony, where you can savor the flavors and rituals that have been cherished for centuries.

Dongdaemun Design Plaza

Dongdaemun Design Plaza, or DDP, is a major urban landmark in Seoul. Designed by the world-renown Zaha Hadid, DDP has a distinctively neo-futuristic architectural style, characterized by sweeping, curving forms of elongated structures.

Dubbed the “largest three-dimensional atypical structure in the world,” this aluminum and concrete icon comprises galleries, event spaces, design shops, and manicured lawns that rise to the roof. The attached Dongdaemun History & Culture Park includes museums highlighting past uses of the Dongdaemun area, including a military camp in the 16th century.

Tips: Come in after sunset to see LED Rose Garden exhibition of more than 25,000 “rose lights” that illuminate automatically every day as the night settles in.
