Seochon Village Art & Food Walking Tour

Overview

Walk the old alleys of Seochon Village and try various Korean foods and snacks!

Seochon, the west side of Gyeongbokgung Palace, is renowned not only for its ancient housing but also for its diverse arts activities, culture, and community. While Bukchon was preferred by high-ranking officials and aristocrats, Seochon was inhabited by middle-class people during the Joseon period. On this tour, explore the numerous remnants and cultural heritages from the Joseon Dynasty in the Seochon area. Additionally, savor classic Korean dishes and experience a unique food culture at Tongin Market!

Why this tour?
  • Seochon Village: an old historic neighborhood with little shops and cafes in modernized hanoks
  • OraeGage: explore stores that have been carrying on Seoul's tradition and value for a long time
  • Tongin Market: a traditional market that first opened in 1941, with 80 vendors along a 200m alleyway
  • Visit a 38-year-old traditional bakery where you can buy Korean old-style peanut senbei snacks
