21 Hotspots: Where to Go in Seoul and How to Get There
21 Hotspots: Where to Go in Seoul and How to Get There via Seoulistic
Seoul: 10 Things to Do — 4. Bugaksan
Mountains ring Seoul and one of the best to climb is Bugaksan, the peak behind the President's pad, Cheongwadae or Blue House. Several trailheads take hikers through reconstructed 15th-century gates and along Seoul's ancient fortress wall. From the top of the 342-m (112-ft.) ascent, you'll get a commanding view of the capital.
Hyundai Department Store
More shopping and eating
LOTTE Department Store
Pretty sure this is the mall where my grandma lost me when I was a toddler... I found my way home after asking a stranger for bus fare.
Seoul: 10 Things to Do — 3. Shinsegae Department Store
If you want to see Seoulites drop the equivalent of a couple of hundred dollars on a few melons or a handful of locally grown oranges, Shinsegae's flagship downtown store is the place to go. This is one of the "big three" department stores in the city (the other two are Lotte and Hyundai) and it's a dazzling emporium that sells all manner of merchandise.
Seoul: 10 Things to Do — 6. Namdaemun Market
The Namdaemun market is seemingly open round-the-clock (though a few retailers close on Sunday) and is a fantastic place to pick up inexpensive clothing, housewares, fabrics, jewelry, accessories, toys, food, flowers, stationery and appliances. But it's easy to get turned around here, as there are thousands of shops located in the 30 or so multistory buildings, not to mention an endless sprawl of street-vendor stalls.
Seoul: 10 Things to Do — 5. Itaewon
Via Times: Every foreigner who comes to Seoul gravitates to this gritty expat-friendly neighborhood near the main U.S. Army base. It's choc-a-block with bars, clubs, restaurants and shops selling everything from reproduction Korean furniture and tailored suits to jewelry and Korean pottery. One of the best clubs in the city, Club Volume, is here, in the basement of the Crown Hotel; it reputedly recruits some of the world's best DJs.
MEGABOX
A piece of my family's history. Haven't visited here since I was five.
자이요가명상
My cousin's yoga studio! We'll take a class or two and burn off some calories (so we can even even more).
