I spend the day using maps.me to explore the city on my own.
Seoul U: A beautiful clean walkable (to a point) city.
Namdaemun, officially known as the Sungnyemun, is one of the Eight Gates in the Fortress Wall of Seoul, South Korea, which surrounded the city in the Joseon dynasty. The gate is located in Jung-gu between Seoul Station and Seoul Plaza, with the historic 24-hour Namdaemun market next to the gate.
Cheonggyecheon Stream: Beautiful! The stream was crystal clear gushing water that was quite captivating, since it was located downtown Seoul. The stream has a history.
Kimchi Museum: It was more of a “gimmick” or “theme” museum than an actual museum. I should have known. But there was a Kimchi tasting at the end of the tour– white, fermented and fresh kimchi. I definitely want to make fresh Kimchi when I return to the states.
Chandeokgng Palace: This place as huge, and very spread out. I could not imagine it as a working palace, but evidently it was and it’s currently a UNESCO Heritage Site.
