Namsangol Hanok Village



We visited Namsangol Hanok Village just to get a glimpse of what a Hanok, a traditional Korean house, looks like. It was also the most accessible Hanok Village for us since we stayed around the Myeongdong area. It was relaxing to see the preserved Korean culture, but it was also getting dark when we got there, so we were also in a rush to see everything that we could see. There was no admission fee anyway, so it wasn't like it's too bad if we left early. The place wasn't also big, so not much of a story here.

We got to the village by getting off at Chungmuro Station of subway Line 4, then going out at Exit 3. Near the exit is a gasoline station, and the corner adjacent to that is a GS25 convenience store. That road leads to the Namsangol Hanok Village. Here are some of the pictures that I got.
