Seoul's largest traditional market. A trip to Gwangjang Market

Gwangjang Market is the largest traditional market in Seoul and the first traditional trading market in Korea, located in Jongno 5-ga, Seoul. It operates from 9 AM to 6 PM every day without stopping. The entrance is right in front of Exit 8 of Jongno 5-ga Station on Subway Line 1, making it easily accessible. In addition, the arcade and other facilities have been modernized, making it easy to move around, allowing you to enjoy a relatively comfortable market outing. There is a lumber store at the entrance, and if you pass by this place, you will reach the most famous 'food alley' in Gwangjang Market. Bindaetteok, Janchi noodles, meat pancakes, raw meat, and Daegu soup are famous. In particular, Bindaetteok, raw meat, and Gwabaegi have been featured quite a lot in the media, so many tourists visit. These days, youth stores sponsored by the Seoul Metropolitan Government are opening stores in Gwangjang Market, adding vitality to it. There are many new stores that were not there before, such as Bachelor's Gangjeong Store and Low Low. Due to the nature of traditional markets, they are less sanitary than department stores and large marts, but they have a unique atmosphere that you can't find in other places. In the past, there was a perception that they used a lot of bags, but these days, with the implementation of a censorship system, the fear of using bags has largely disappeared. If you want to visit one of the few traditional markets left in Seoul, I recommend visiting this place. #Best #SeoulTravel #CityTravel #DateCourse
