The quiet and narrow alleyways typical of the traditional hanok villages are packed with small boutiques that sell a very stylish selection of K-fashion goods. There are also many coffeeshops, art galleries and small restaurants. It\u2019s usually packed with people on weekends but it\u2019s a wonderful area to spend the afternoon and enjoy a beautiful sunset overlooking\u00a0 the traditional rooftops of this quiet area and mountains that surround the city.\r\n\r\n<div class=\"nextgen_pro_blog_gallery\" id=\"displayed_gallery_4723\">\n\t\t\t<div id=\"ngg-image-0\" class=\"image-wrapper\" style=\"width: 800px\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/samcheondong-seoul\/Samcheondong-Seoul-Shopping-0135027.jpg\"\n\t\t   title=\"\"\n           data-src=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/samcheondong-seoul\/Samcheondong-Seoul-Shopping-0135027.jpg\"\n           data-thumbnail=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/samcheondong-seoul\/thumbs\/thumbs_Samcheondong-Seoul-Shopping-0135027.jpg\"\n           data-image-id=\"2746\"\n           data-title=\"Samcheondong Seoul Shopping-0135027\"\n           data-description=\"\"\n\t\t   class=\"ngg-fancybox\" rel=\"4723\">\n\t\t   \t\t\t<img\n\t\t\t\tdata-title=\"Samcheondong Seoul Shopping-0135027\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-alt=\"Samcheondong Seoul Shopping-0135027\"\n                width=\"800\"\n\t\t\t\tsrc=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/samcheondong-seoul\/Samcheondong-Seoul-Shopping-0135027.jpg\"\n\t\t\t\/>\n\t\t\t<noscript>\n\t\t\t\t<img\n\t\t\t\t\ttitle=\"Samcheondong Seoul Shopping-0135027\"\n\t\t\t\t\talt=\"Samcheondong Seoul Shopping-0135027\"\n\t\t\t\t\tsrc=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/samcheondong-seoul\/Samcheondong-Seoul-Shopping-0135027.jpg\"\n          width=\"800\"\n\t\t\t\t\/>\n\t\t\t<\/noscript>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\r\n\r\nThe street Yun Bo-seong-gil (nearby Anguk Subway Station exit 1) is a good start point to explore Samcheong-dong. Keep walking North until you reach Bukchon-ro 5 gil. These streets already have a few shops and nice coffee shops, but the best part begins as you head West\u00a0 and pass the relaxing gardens of the Jeongdok Public Library. There, best is to get lost because some of the best stores are hidden in tiny alleyways.\r\n\r\n<div class=\"nextgen_pro_blog_gallery\" id=\"displayed_gallery_4724\">\n\t\t\t<div id=\"ngg-image-0\"

Samcheong-dong ro. The atmosphere here is slightly different. There are far more coffee shops than boutiques but it\u2019s really fun discovering exquisite terraces and other worth visiting outlets carefully and elegantly sandwiched in the hilly \u00a0side of the street. After all the shopping, find a good place to chill out before visiting the Hanok villages around Bukchon-ro 11-gil street.\r\n\r\n<div class=\"nextgen_pro_blog_gallery\"
