Day Three
Reflect on the struggles and sacrifices of Koreans to overcome colonialism and
create a modern country at
Seodaemun Prison History Hall
. Afterwards, hike up
nearby
Inwangsan
for fabulous views of the city, surreal rock formations and the
other-worldly shamanistic rituals of
Inwangsan Guksadang
.
Keep on shadowing the
Seoul Fortress Walls
down to Buam-dong and over
Bukaksan
and to Seongbuk-dong, a hike of around two hours. Catch your breath
and rest your feet in the beautiful teahouse
Suyeon Sanbang
, and the equally se-
rene surrounds of the temple
Gilsang-sa
.
Dinner
Snip noodles with big scissors at Woo Rae Oak (

).
If your hiking legs haven't given out, it's only another hour or so following the
Fortress Walls over
Naksan
and down to
Dongdaemun
, where the night market
will just be starting to crank up (alternatively take the subway). Admire the 21st-
century architectural styling of
Dongdaemun Plaza & Park
, then trawl the market stalls
for a new outfit.
