🧭Visit info
Myeongdong is Seoul's No. 1 shopping destination. Countless cosmetic road shops, fashion brands, and department stores line the long streets. When the sun sets, hundreds of yellow street stalls light up, transforming the center into a 'Street Food Paradise'. From grilled lobster to Tteokbokki and Tornado Potatoes, they have it all. We also recommend resting your tired legs in the quiet serenity of Myeongdong Cathedral.
