Charming Bukchon Hanok Village





















Between Gyeonbokgung Palace and Chandeokgoung Palace is the  Bukchon Hankok Village.  This is an area with  more than 900 Korean traditional houses where people still actually live.  There is also an area in this place where Korean street food  and various arts and crafts are being sold.   

But be prepared for a tiring walk as you have to go up and down its steep streets which is worth the effort as the place is quaint and charming.  It is a favorite filming location for Korean movies and TV dramas.
