10 Sights & Landmarks in Yongsan-gu That You Shouldn't Miss

August 9, 2021 Leonardo Torrence

Seoul is the business and cultural hub of South Korea, where skyscrapers tower over Buddhist temples. Take it all in from the N Seoul Tower, built atop a peak in Namsan Park. The teahouses and shops of Insadong give you a taste of Korean flavor, which you can further experience with a visit to the grounds and museums of Gyeongbokgung. UNESCO World Heritage Site Changdeokgung Palace is a fine example of authentic ancient architecture.

Seoul Central Mosque

Reviewed By wahizan - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

The women ablution and toilet are located outside the masjid. Like all other sites in Seoul, most of the places use automatic light (auto sensor light) Women prayer room is situated at 3rd floor. Quite a challenge for old people to climb the stairs. Stairs and prayer hall is fully carpeted. The women prayer area is quite dark but equipped with fans, sejadah and lots of telekung. We can witness the men praying from the 3rd floor. The masjid interior is decorated with beautiful Islamic designed mosaic. Imam's voice is melodious and I feel so peaceful praying in this masjid.

I prayed at Friday Shalat October 5 yesterday. Even though rainy days, jamaah fill the mosque. Imam’s say about Al Ikhlas surah. It’s touching my heart. Subhanallah. Thank you for sympathy for the earthquake in Lombok and Palu, Indonesia
