Bukchon Hanok Village

Bukchon Hanok Village is home to hundreds of traditional Korean houses (hanok) that have been preserved amidst the growing cityscape. The layout of the village follows the natural slope of the hills, offering scenic views of tiled roofs and narrow alleys. Residents still live in many of these homes, adding to the area’s authenticity. It represents a living blend of heritage and daily life. The contrast between old architecture and the modern city beyond is striking.

Seoul Museum of Craft Art

This museum celebrates Korea’s long history of craftsmanship, showcasing works in ceramics, wood, metal, and fabric. The exhibitions explore both traditional techniques and contemporary reinterpretations. Each gallery invites quiet reflection on the beauty of ordinary objects. Educational programs and special exhibits enhance visitor engagement.

Insa-dong + Tea time at a local café

Ikseon-dong Hanok Street

Ikseon-dong is a charming neighborhood where early 20th-century hanok buildings have been transformed into trendy cafés, boutiques, and restaurants. The narrow alleys and unique facades preserve a sense of nostalgia. Despite its historic roots, the district is known for its youthful energy and creativity. The blend of vintage aesthetics and modern concepts defines its appeal. It is a vivid example of urban regeneration rooted in tradition.

Cheonggyecheon Stream

Cheonggyecheon is a beautiful stream flowing through downtown Seoul, offering a refreshing escape from the city’s busy streets. Long time ago, it was a natural waterway that locals used every day, but during rapid industrialization, it became polluted and was eventually covered by roads and an overpass. In 2005, Seoul took a bold step and restored the stream, transforming it into a peaceful 5,8km-long urban park. Today, it’s filled with clean water, walking paths, bridges, and public art. Day or night, it’s a favorite place for both locals and tourists—especially when the lights reflect off the water in the evening. It’s a symbol of Seoul’s ability to bring nature and city life into the harmony.
