The facts
In 2011, the old station was re-opened as a multicultural space called Culture Station Seoul 284. The renovations took two years to complete and about 20 million dollars. There is an area for performances, exhibitions and other events. The building was originally constructed between 1922 and 1925 and was called Gyeongsung Station. It was designed by Tokyo University professor Tsukamoto Yasushi. The station was used up until 2004 when the new Seoul Station was built for the KTX bullet train.

If you're looking for something to do while waiting for KTX head over to the old Seoul station. Although, it's no longer operating as a transportation hub, the historical building is now a museum hosting art gallery, various cultural event and program. Visitors can also learn about the train station on the upper level. Overall, it's a spot with beautiful architecture and rich history of the rail network.

Culture Station it's right next to Seoul Station (trains), you can visit it before going to Lotte Mart. It's always crowded but it's a nice way to spend your morning.
