Things to Do in Seoul: Street Food, Hanbok and Community

I stayed at Travelodge Myeongdong Namsan, which put Myeongdong within easy reach. These notes separate the hotel stay from my experiences around Seoul.

I explored Myeongdong through its street food.

I wore hanbok, Korea's traditional dress, to visit a palace.

I spent time in Itaewon, visited the community at Seoul Central Church, and explored the Avenue of Youth.

Many Seoul palaces offer free or discounted entry if you wear hanbok; check the current policy and rental options before you go.
