One of the oldest shopping markets in South Korea. We visited this place in November. It is one of best place to walk, shop and eat on the brick streets. There are number of vendors selling different kinds of souvenirs, clothes, toys, fidgets and food. We went there on Sunday and it was not that crowded. Once of the drawback that we noticed that there were no trash cans around the public area, we had to look for one to throw away trash. We noticed this at several different places. Besides that Seoul is also a must see city of South Korea.

No trash cans. Food vendors are nice, they also have tourist guides to answer any questions. You can find anything you are looking for to buy as a gift it’s all sh*t we don’t need thou. The food thou is great and you can try so many different snacks here, carry small bills - in case you have trouble ordering just give the right amount and point. Other than the food - not really a place I would recommend to visit. I don’t get what people do with their trash, I’m so curious. If you are here try out momocoffee!
