Bukchon and Samcheong-dong Part 2

Samcheong-dong is just lies at the base of the giant hill that Bukchon lies on. Soojeong and I walked down a set of stairs and down into the main for of the town. For me, it really had a Colorado mountain-town feel to it. The streets were not nearly as crowded as the main parts of Seoul, there were a lot of trees and flowers, and the restaurants and shops were very varied in what they had to offer. I think there was a little bit of everything there. Of all the places I have been to since coming to Korea, I think it is one of my favorites. We walked up the street for a long ways before taking a break at a cafe/restaurant to get something to drink. My kiwi banana juice was delicious. After cooling off and people watching (I found a guy with a mullet) we headed back to the main city on foot stopping to look at shops along the way.
