Most picturesque area to explore in Seoul ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ท

Bukchon Hanok Village is a beautiful, historic neighborhood in the heart of Seoul, South Korea. ๐Ÿ‡ฐ๐Ÿ‡ท This area,nestled between Gyeongbokgung and Changdeokgung Palaces, is famous for its Korean houses known as โ€œhanokโ€. These homes, with their curved roofs, wooden beams, and intricate designs, offer a glimpse into Koreaโ€™s past. The village itself is a living museum, where residents still live in these historic homes, blending the old with the new. Walking through Bukchonโ€™s narrow alleys, youโ€™ll find a mix of traditional tea houses, art galleries, with its scenic views of Seoulโ€™s modern skyline framed by the ancient architecture of the Hanok. Visitors can participate in cultural experiences, such as traditional craft workshops, hanbok rentals, wine tasting, and even stay in a hanok guesthouse. ๐ŸŽซThere is no entrance fee to visit Bukchon Hanok Village. Itโ€™s an open neighborhood, free for all to explore. However, you are encouraged to respect the privacy of the residents and maintain a peaceful atmosphere while exploring the village. ๐Ÿ“37, Gyedong-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul, South Korea #summerdestinations
