Information

The facts

A must-see place for those who want to experience the traditional culture of Korea. Insadong street stretches over 700 meters between Anguk subway station and Jongno 2-ga (near Jongno 3-ga station).
During the Joseon Dynasty(1392-1910), the street was dominated by Dohwawon, a place of study for painters. The area is still a center for the arts, and painters, craftsmen, and art lovers continue to set up shop along the narrow alleys, making it a unique place full of folk crafts, pottery, and paintings.

You can also find here the only Starbucks Cafe that is written in Korean.

Perfect place to buy souvenirs like crafts,traditional bags,keychains and bookmarks, take a walk a long ssamziegil mall where there's lots of small lots to shop at. There's also a cafe at the roof.

This place is known from it's modern and traditional pieces. The common food that I saw that people where lining off where the "똥빵". You can buy 2pcs and 1 Korean juice Sikhye for 4,000 won.

Don't. Buy. Anything. There.
Really - that's place only for tourists and prices are higher in two or three times. You can find same thing anywhere else. And also street, filled of perverts. Girls, be careful~
