The 6 Best Shopping in Dongdaemun-gu, South Korea

May 8, 2022 Janean Rudisill

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.

Gyeongdong Market

The country's largest medicinal herb market features a seemingly never ending array of spices, herbs and mushrooms. This is also a great place to try unusual medicinal teas, like deer antler or holy mushroom tea.

Very huge ginseng market where you can smell the ginseng odor once you come out from metro. Some owners speak chinese but mostly cannot understand english. I bought many ginseng, cheap and expensive ones and when cook you can notice the flavour straight away. Further down, fruits section where you can find many kinds of local fruits.
