Climbing up the steps, sharing the four seasons with Naksan.

Walking through Naksan Park, each step feels like traversing the intersection of nature and culture in Seoul. The winding paths are flanked by lush trees, with sunlight filtering through the leaves like fine gold dust, gently illuminating every shadow. Reaching the heights, the city's skyline contrasts beautifully with the serene nature, offering a broad view and a sense of openness. Strolling along the famous Seoul City Wall Trail, the ancient stone walls bear the marks of time and witness the prosperity and changes of Seoul. Naksan in autumn is particularly enchanting, with fiery red and golden leaves covering the mountain paths, as if stepping into a poetic painting. At dusk, the sunset paints the sky red, enveloping the entire mountain in warm light and shadow, making it hard to leave. The beauty of Naksan Park lies not only in its stunning natural scenery but also in its poetic tranquility and harmony. Here, I can shed my busy thoughts and find inner peace and inspiration in every step and view.

Yeonnam-dong Coffee Shop A delicious dish you won’t be able to go back to after drinking it once

"oats coffee", famous for its Viennese coffee (Einspänner), moved to Yeonnam-dong, and the two-story space is wider and more comfortable. The must-try #Einspänner coffee here is covered with fluffy and dense fresh cream, and the top is dotted with cute cloud-like cat-shaped milk foam. The taste is dense and sweet but not greasy. A sip of fresh cream paired with a sip of coffee will really make you want to go back for more. Not going. In addition to the signature Viennese coffee, oats coffee also offers a variety of snacks. This time, they also took out Fei Nanxue. The crispy cake on the outside is soft and fragrant with butter, which is also highly recommended. The simple decoration of the store uses wood to create a comfortable atmosphere, which is perfect for gathering with friends or enjoying leisure time alone. Friends who come to Seoul, be sure to take the time to have a drink! ////////////////////////// Store information///////////////////////// //// ✅ oats coffee @oatscoffee ⏰Business hours: Daily 11:00–21:00 📍 Address: 서울 마포구 성미산로29길 29-8 1층 #OatsCoffee #SeoulCafe #Yonnam-dong Cafe #Korea Cafe #ViennaCoffee #Cloud Cream Coffee #Seoul Coffee Recommendation #CoffeeLovers #Korean Dessert #Yonnam-dong Food #Seoul Wangmei Cafe #CafeVibes

Seoul Sinyongsan Station Hidden Food That Koreans Are Queuing for

#100 Ways to Travel ｜Seoul. Triangle Station｜ This time, in order to develop new spots, I specially went to Xinlong Mountain District. I actually saw an advertisement for this restaurant in an MRT station and thought it was cute, so I decided to go there on the spur of the moment. I really liked it once I got there! Although there were also a lot of Koreans queuing up, it was convenient to make a reservation via mobile phone~it didn’t take long to get a seat. The breads in the store all look super delicious. The classic products are pistachio-based products (but after eating the desserts from the previous store, I only wanted the salty ones) and they are also delicious! Anyway, if you have time to hang out, I highly recommend coming here to hang out. It’s very local and I like it very much. 🔰 Shrimp Sandwich / 13,500 won 🔰 Mojito (non-alcoholic) / 6,000 won ✅ Teddy Beurre House 테디뵈르하우스 @teddybeurrehouse 📍 Address｜서울 용산구 한강대로40가길 42 1층 ⏰Business hours｜11:00-22:00 (opens at 10:00 on holidays) #Na want to eat #naamangequoi #澳门精品 #澳门外围行 #澳门 cafe #新龙山カフェ #seoulcoffee #seoulbakery #bakery #빵판매점 #빵집 #베이커리 #서울맛집 #서울베이커리 #teddybeur rehouse #테디뵈르하우스

🇰🇷 Seoul Skyline from Namsan Observatory

The Namsan Observatory, located right next to the Namsan Mountain Top Bus Station, is a great spot to enjoy panoramic views of the Seoul skyline, even before reaching N Seoul Tower. We took Bus No. 1 from our hotel in Chungmuro and arrived at the Namsan Mountain Top Bus Station in about half an hour. On a clear day, visitors can see as far as Seoul's outskirts, with views of Bukhan Mountain, Buram Mountain, and Yongma Mountain from the observatory. #goingplaces #100WaysOfTravel #korea #southkorea #seoul #namsan #observatory #seoultower #tripblazers

An evening stroll along the Gyeongbukgung stone walls with beautiful gingko tree in autumn

#coupletravel #100waysoftravel Autumn arrives late in Korea, but we are still able to catch the stunningly beautiful autumn leaves along the stone walls. The rows are filled with yellowish gingko trees which make the evening golden yellowish, stunningly beautiful atmosphere which we could not stop snapping pictures around the area. The most beautiful part is the stretch behind the stone walls near Cheongwadae area, where the trees are taller and bushier. We are really blessed and happy for being able to catch such beautiful scenery, and we hope to see the same again next year.

A Golden Season in Seoul: Autumn’s Magic Unfolds 🇰🇷

The city transforms into a breathtaking canvas of fiery reds, oranges, and golden yellows as the foliage peaks in late October and early November. Strolling through parks like Namsan or along the Han River, the crisp air and vibrant landscapes create an idyllic backdrop. Traditional palaces and modern skyscrapers alike are framed by nature’s beauty. Seasonal treats like roasted sweet potatoes and hot chestnuts add to the charm. Whether you’re exploring historical sites or cozy cafes, autumn in Seoul offers an unforgettable, serene experience. My rating: 4.5 ⭐️ out of 5!

From the end of October to mid-November, the streets of Seoul are covered with golden fallen leaves of ginkgo trees. Under the soft autumn sunshine, the leaves sparkle. This is the best time to explore the streets and alleys of Seoul. It was really a pleasure to walk from Hannam-dong through Itaewon and finally to Noksapyeong. It was a pleasure to take pictures of the beautiful scenery of Namsan Tower on the sky bridge and admire the ginkgo trees! #NovemberGood Places 2024 #sunway

Seoul Munrae-dong Cafe, which Koreans like to go to recently

#seoultravel #100 ways to travel Seoul. Munrae-dong｜Rust Bakery Tired of other popular areas in Seoul? Let’s explore Munrae Cave this time! Munrae-dong, located near Yeongdeungpo-gu, used to be an old steel factory area (a bit like the early Seongsu-dong). Nowadays, it has gradually become an emerging art village, with many cafes and small shops quietly settling in, adding a lot of literary and artistic atmosphere to this area. This time I came to Munrae-dong not only to feel the atmosphere of the art village, but also to check in at the popular bakery - Rust Bakery. The combination of red brick walls, graffiti, old factory elements, and a spacious two-story space make Rust Bakery not only easy to photograph, but also delicious! When you come here, be sure to try their croissants and donuts. This time I ordered #Earl Gray Croissant. The outside is crispy, and the filling is rich Earl Gray Tea Custard. It is sweet but not greasy, and the tea is fragrant. It is really delicious! # OriginalFernand Snow is relatively unpretentious. I recommend the Fei Nanxue from Oats cafe and the #Pistachio Pudding here is also one of the must-try. Although it is called pudding in English, the taste is more like tiramisu. The slight saltiness offsets the sweetness, making it surprisingly delicious. If you have plenty of time or want to experience the local baking culture, you might as well come to Rust Bakery. After eating, you can walk around for a while. It’s really great. /////////////////////////// Store information //////////////////////// ///// 𝗥𝗨𝗦𝗧 𝗕𝗔𝗞𝗘𝗥𝗬 𝗖𝗔𝗙𝗘 러스트베이커리 @rustbakery 📍 Address: 서울 영등포구 경인로79길 15 ⏰Business hours: 11:00 - 22:00 #RustBakery #文来 Dong #Seoul Food #KoreaTravel #SeoulTandian #croissantlovers #Koreacafé #文来杯#Korea Bakery #foodDiary #SeoulArtVillage #러스트베이커리#문래동 #서울여행 #서울카페 #문래동카페 #한국빵집 #카페투어 #서울맛집 #도넛맛집 #서울핫플 #여행스타그램 #seoul #Bakery #mullae

I will stay at this hotel whenever I come to Seoul. It's nice and affordable.

Park Hyatt Seoul Park Suite||I stayed at the hotel for a week for a meeting. Before I arrived, the customer experience manager Erin Kim emailed me to explain the check-out situation and the early check-in arrangement for my early flight. I was upgraded to a basic suite with a suite voucher, and Erin told me that I was upgraded to a Park Suite. I was surprised by the professional communication. She also mentioned that there was subway construction nearby, so she arranged a quiet floor for me. The hotel is currently installing double-glazed windows on all floors to deal with the construction of Samseong Station. The 7th floor has been completed, and all floors will be completed next month. I couldn't hear the noise from the construction site downstairs, which was a very chill stay. I like the layout of the room, with a separate living room, office area, desk, and bar. The room faces the Gangnam Crossroads, where you can feel the hustle and bustle. The bathroom design reminds me of the Andaz Shanghai I stayed at many years ago. There is no ancient tomb lamp, but it retains the rock-cut style that I like very much. The toiletries are Le Labo Bergamote 22, a fresh citrus scent suitable for summer. This is also the high-end scent throughout the hotel's sauna and spa.

A pilgrimage place for film lovers: holy water "Kodak Corner Shop" super cute in-store sharing

#Shopping Friends who like to play with film machines, if you come to Seoul, you must visit the "Kodak Corner Shop" in Seongsu! Although this store specializes in clothing, shoes, bags and accessories limited to Kodak Korea, the entire decoration exudes a strong retro atmosphere and is full of Kodak style, which is really cute. The space on the two floors is not large, but the little corners are full of surprises. There are many nostalgic old objects and film cameras displayed in the store, which makes people unable to put it down. Have you been looking for a good-looking camera bag? This might be your treasure trove! In addition, small accessories such as hats and socks are also worth buying. By the way~ After shopping, you can also try #PotatoPorkRibSoup🥹 at the popular gourmet restaurant diagonally across the way, perfect itinerary! 🤍Highly recommended to you🤍 ✅ Kodak Corner Shop 코닥 코너숍 📍Address: 서울특별시 성동구 성수동2가 316-62 🕰️Business hours: 10:00am - 20:30pm

Strolling Through the Comic Corners of Seoul's Myeongdong

Walking through the comic street in Seoul's Myeongdong feels like stepping into a fantastical world of the second dimension. The murals on both sides of the street are lifelike, with comic characters peeking out from the walls, their vibrant colors instantly catching everyone's attention. This place is not only a paradise for enthusiasts but also a world full of childlike wonder and creativity. Each artwork carries its own story and emotions, making people stop and admire them closely. Along the way, I was constantly drawn to those familiar characters, from classic Korean comics to globally popular cartoon figures, as if I were walking through childhood memories. The small shops along the street are also very distinctive, with stalls selling comic-related merchandise and creative handmade items. Each shopfront is filled with laughter and surprises from the crowd. Sunlight spills over every corner of the comic street, illuminating the colorful walls and bringing the street to life. Walking here, it feels as if everyone has become part of the artwork. This little street gives me a unique sense of joy, finding pure and innocent fun amidst the bustling city.

Trip to Seoul 🇰🇷

It was a shopping trip with sisters to Seoul, Korea. We started our trip at Insadong, a bustling neighborhood blending modern and traditional elements. Insadong’s main street is lined with art galleries, antique shops, and craft stores selling ceramics, handmade paper📄 , and local teas 🍵 . It’s the perfect place to grab souvenirs, but what made it memorable was the photo ops 📸 We explored Ssamziegil, a colorful, open-air shopping complex with unique architecture where you can capture vibrant, quirky shots from the various floors and rooftop garden. 📍44 Insadong-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul A must-visit for anyone in Seoul, Myeongdong is a shopping paradise with countless stores and brand outlets on both sides of the street. We visited in the afternoon to catch the vibrant crowd and colorful 🌈 displays, but evening is also ideal as the lights add a magical glow to the area. It’s the ultimate destination for skincare and cosmetics, where brands like Innisfree, Etude House, and Laneige all have flagship stores.

The LED rose garden, especially, is breathtaking and a great backdrop for unforgettable photos 📸 📍281 Eulji-ro, Jung-gu, Seoul Lastly, we also visited Garosu-gil in Sinsa-dong, a trendy neighborhood with picturesque, tree-lined 🌳 streets and stylish boutiques.

Come to Seoul Forest and enjoy an art experience that refreshes all five senses!

Sumsei Terrarium (섬세이테라리움) is located on the busiest street of Seoul Forest. This five-story art experience space is meticulously crafted by the famous Korean creative brand 'SUMSEI (섬세이)'. Each floor combines different natural elements to create a unique sensory atmosphere, allowing visitors to reawaken their perception of the world through these sensory experiences. From stones, sand, air, trees, water, to light, each element brings different sensory stimuli, enabling us to let go of our preconceived notions and rediscover the charm of nature. Among the many experiences, my favorite is the 'Black Out' experience on the first floor. Here, we are required to let go of our usual senses and explore in the dark, which is both a bit scary and thrilling. After visiting all the floors, you can head to the rest area on the fourth floor to redeem a cup of tea and some snacks. Throughout the experience, as there are not many people, you can leisurely take in every detail and slowly take photos to document everything. I highly recommend this place to everyone.

Seoul so good.

Seoul is always a good idea. No matter how many times I visit, I never get bored. Every trip is fun and every trip costs me a lot of money, haha. This time, I booked my tickets with Trip.com, opting for the One Price round-trip from Don Mueang to Incheon with Air Asia X for 6,990 THB. This price includes 25 kg of luggage both ways. Another pleasant surprise was that both flights were on old Singapore Airlines planes, which are definitely more comfortable than Air Asia's own planes. I had no issues with immigration this time. I didn't do much sightseeing on this trip. The main highlight was visiting Namsan Tower, thanks to a flash sale ticket from Trip.com. The highlight of this trip was definitely trying Korean-style grilled eel in Goyang. It was incredibly delicious and quite different from the Japanese style. Highly recommended!

Must-Visit Instagram-Worthy Café in Seongsu!

《NUDAKE Seongsu Main Store》 This super popular café is a pilgrimage spot for many tourists visiting Korea. This time, we took the subway directly to Seongsu Station to visit the main store. The interior is mainly decorated in black and dark tones. Inside, a giant round table displays a variety of original desserts with a strong sense of design, giving the feeling of admiring artworks in a museum. On weekdays around 2 PM, there are usually seats available. 1️⃣ Matcha Lava Croissant ₩28,000 👉 The signature dish of the store and the MVP of this meal 👑 👉 Shaped like a volcanic crater, the black croissant at the bottom gets its color from squid ink, and it has a creamy aroma 👉 The middle is filled with matcha lava cream, which has a rich matcha and fresh cream flavor without being overly sweet. Dipping the croissant in the cream is truly irresistible! 2️⃣ Cream Croissant ₩28,000 👉 The base is the same as the Matcha Lava Croissant 👉 The middle is filled with mascarpone cheese and fresh cream. Although it doesn't flow like lava when cut, it has a rich creamy flavor that isn't overwhelming even if you eat a lot 3️⃣ Tomato 2 ₩12,000 👉 Looks like a tomato on the outside 👉 The outer layer is a jelly made from pomegranate and cranberry juice, giving it a sweet and sour taste 👉 The core's outer shell is hard white chocolate that needs to be cracked open. Inside, there's orange and lemon jelly with a bit of lemon zest, making it quite tangy 4️⃣ Peak Green Latte ₩8,000 👉 The bottom is matcha latte, topped with matcha cream 👉 The whole drink is full of matcha flavor, a must-order for matcha lovers, though it is slightly on the sweeter side
