Namdaemun Market
Commercial district
Namdaemun Market is the largest traditional market in Korea. You can find it near Hoehyeon Station in the lively city of Seoul. The market is full of stalls and shops selling all kinds of things—from traditional Korean items to imported goods—all at affordable prices. The market is full of energy, with sellers chatting and bargaining in many different languages. You might even get the chance to negotiate prices with the vendors. But wait, there's more! While you're there, don't miss out on the yummy street food, like a hot bowl of Korean hand-cut noodles in Kalguksu Alley. Whether you love food, shopping, or want to experience real Korean culture, Namdaemun Market is a place you have to check out.

The performance started at about five o'clock. The atmosphere was very good and the actors also interacted with each other, which was good.

Every time I come to Seoul, I come to see the Macho Man Show. The whole atmosphere is created very well. The venue is at Euljiro 3-ga Station of Subway Line 2. It is very convenient to arrange in your itinerary. Highly recommended.

Very easy to redeem. You can do your shopping first and calculate how many vouchers you need as the vouchers can be combined and the exchange rate is quite good. Do take note of the tax refund as the amount after discount can be less than the voucher value.

N Seoul Tower is a must-visit landmark that offers breathtaking 360-degree views of the city skyline. It's especially stunning at sunset when Seoul's lights begin to twinkle. The tower’s observation deck, interactive exhibits, and revolving restaurant create an unforgettable experience. Known for its "Locks of Love" area, where couples leave padlocks symbolizing eternal love, the site has a romantic charm that adds to its appeal. Accessible by a scenic cable car or a short hike, N Seoul Tower is a perfect blend of natural beauty, urban panorama, and cultural charm.

My brother and I got a small facial package and we both enjoyed it thoroughly. As part of the treatment, we did a collagen mask and we came out of it shiny and hydrated. The workers and whole experience was pleasant and right after we finished we wanted to go back.
