It’s a nice sunny afternoon and you want to go shopping. Instead of heading to a department store, check out Myeong- dong.  This area is geared for tourists with a wide selection of name brand stores selling everything from make-up to shoes. Street vendors line the streets selling food, fake Louis Vuitton bags, socks, hats, and so forth.There are plenty of restaurants in this area selling a range of food including fast food, Korean foods, Italian, and more.

Myeong-dong is easily accessible by subway. Take line subway line number 4. It’s only two subway stops away from Seoul Station.
