Scenes from Seoul

Gyeongbok-Gung Palace: Da Sistas do Seoul!


Namdae-mun Gate: It's Seoul's largest gate in the midst of a big market, traffic and skyscrapers.


Namdaemun Market: A Starbucks delivery disaster! You can find EVERYTHING in this market: foreign items, camping/backpacking gear, ginseng, handicrafts, food, etc.




Gyeongbok-gung: A palace guard stands on display, complete with a fake beard for tourist photos.


Itaewon: The foreign district. On the day of the Japan vs. Korea Baseball game, people crowded around TVs on the street to watch the game as they shopped.



Dongdaeman Market: Blocks and blocks of shopping! Everything you want, sometimes you can bargain, sometimes you can't! It's part of the game.
