The 10 Best Shopping in Jung-gu, South Korea
Seoul is the business and cultural hub of South Korea, where skyscrapers tower over Buddhist temples. Take it all in from the N Seoul Tower, built atop a peak in Namsan Park. The teahouses and shops of Insadong give you a taste of Korean flavor, which you can further experience with a visit to the grounds and museums of Gyeongbokgung. UNESCO World Heritage Site Changdeokgung Palace is a fine example of authentic ancient architecture.

It's a nice local market, perfect for shopping souvenirs to take home :) Try the dumplings and the ginger tea, those are so good!

This place is just a short walk from the Seoul Design Plaza and the Dongdeamun Cultural Park and its shopping district, and also part of the HopOn HopOff bus route. Its a great place to buy dried seafood, fermented goods, Korean delicacies and other dry foodstuffs. The shop owners, mostly elderly Korean ladies are very friendly and would give excellent prices or even samplings. Worth a visit, and its not crowded and opens all day long....

Wide range of beads, phone accessories and decorations for bags, phones can be found on 5th floor of building A & B. Prices are reasonable and you will be spoilt for choices. Allocate at least 3 to 4 hours here if you are into handicrafts. There's a food court at level 6 serving authentic Korean food at good price and great taste. Dun miss it if you are around that area.

The good hall is connected to Hyewha underground and is brilliant! Shopping is very high end. Tax free floors are 8-12 (not very well advertised), but we found it overrated with not much bargains. Also they only accept USD in duty free and you need your passport (or photo of it) and flight details to buy.
