A Two-sided Alley

Seoul¡¯s Past and Present Coexist in Bukchon Hanok Village

If you walk five minutes from E UM The Place, you will find Bukchon Hanok Village. Although Seoul is a state-of-the-art city, this small neighborhood with 600-year-old Hanok and Hanbok-clad people still stands, seemingly transporting visitors into the past. There is one scene here you shouldn¡¯t miss. There¡¯s a small hill with a narrow alley lined with Hanok. If you look back over the alley after walking up the hill, you can see the Namsan Tower and skyscrapers beyond the low roofs of the Hanok. Enjoy the scenery of Seoul¡¯s past and present.
