The quirky four-story complex, complete with a spiral staircase, brought an edgy, youthful energy to the tourist-heavy neighborhood.
But in contrast to the traditional teahouses, temple food restaurants and souvenir shops in the neighborhood, Ssamziegil, and the area around it, offers a fresh alternative for tourists and Koreans alike. It contains more than 70 shops offering everything from whimsical handicrafts made by young korean designers to vintage clothing and souvenirs. There is also a handful of galleries with works by emerging artists and a variety of restaurants. Even in the walls of Ssamzie-gil, people can't take their eyes off from lovable wall printings.
As you do your window-shopping through the lovely, cozy stores all the way to the top, you will arrive at Haneulmadang where you can get a extraordinarily clear view of the sky.
