Top 10 Things to do in Dongdaemun / Sindangdong, South Korea

July 31, 2021 Rebbecca Marino

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.

Dongdaemun Gate (Heunginjimun)

Reviewed By chrisruggaluffagus - Yorktown, United States

This is a quick stop between all the other sites in Seoul. You only need about 15 min to get the pictures you need. This gate is one of several still standing as part of the Seoul City Wall. Remnants of Seoul City Wall along with the Seoul City Wall Museum are nearby. I recommend you see all three while in the area. If you only want to see one gate, this is a great one!

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.
