| streets of insadong |
to get to insadong, get off at
anguk station (exit 6), and walk straight. approximately 200 metres ahead is the entrance to insadong-gil street, which showcases art galleries, traditional craft stores and tea houses. the whole of insadong is really crowded, and usually packed with foreigners and tourist groups, especially on weekends as it converts into a vehicle-free road. however, it is fun to visit when the flea market opens and booths selling snacks and tiny knick-knacks are set up.
