The taste buds have officially found their holy mecca! With a smorgasbord of treats and dishes scattered around Seoul, it has surely earned the holy term. I haven’t tried dog or horse yet, but I am sure to, as the weeks are beginning to roll by with the ease of seconds.
Last weekend, I was going to post these pictures from my venture close to the heart of Seoul, but became too busy with work necessities and sleep to get them up. SO… here they are for your viewing pleasure!
The photos are of the Namsangol Hanok Village ,“hanok” is the word for the traditional style houses in Korea…
This old village is sandwiched in the modernity of Seoul; skyscrapers, coffee shops, and K-pop paraphernalia surround this historic relic of a site, and yet it doesn’t disturb its quaint charm.
After gallivanting around the village and making papier-mâché mirrors, I made my way up to the Seoul Tower to see Christmas Trees made of wishing locks, Lights, Cityscape views and people covering ever surface of walking space. Dried squid and easy snack stands littering the walkway with their 5,000 won signs and delicious aromas. To the top of the tower, down to the gift shop, purchasing a lock to write a wish for the up coming year.
I wrote my wish and locked it to a tree.
