Seoul Must Visit Neighbourhoods For First-Time Tourists

Myeongdong

Myeongdong is the central shopping district in Seoul, South Korea. It has everything you wish for, from electronics, fashion, food and cat cafes. I highly recommend staying in the Myeongdong in Seoul, South Korea. I have seen many hotels and hostels around. It will be very convenient for you. It’s best to allocate a whole day here, preferably not on the weekend, to explore around and score a good bargain on skincare products. A unique shopping experience here is that the sellers will stand in front of the store offering you lots of samples of the products as long as you get inside the store. And you will get more of those samples if you buy something from the store. I advise you not to bring any skincare from your home because of free products on the street.

Insadong

Insadong is the cultural district of Seoul. It’s filled with galleries, street art and coffee shops. You must visit Ssamziegil In the heart of Insadong. The four-story building is packed with all things cute. On the roof, there is a coffee shop not to be missed, they serve good coffee, and it has a fantastic view of the city. You also could find the Korean version of love locks here, which instead of a lock, they use around and pink luggage tag-like thingy. Another thing not to be missed here is the tea house. Insadong is my favourite place in Seoul. Everything is just so pretty, yummy and colourful.

Bukchon Hanok

Lastly, walk to the cultural village nearby, Bukchon Hanok. Home to hundreds of Hanok, the traditional houses. You can easily spend a few good hours here. There are little shops, coffee shops, and restaurants.
