The 10 Best Shopping in Insadong, South Korea

November 13, 2021 Timmy Ribble

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.

A cool spot to browse handmade items from small boutique shops perfect for big and small budgets. The way you traverse the shops is via a continuous walkway that takes you to the top where the (slightly) famous toilet-themed cafe is (see photos of coffee served in ceramic toilets). I bought quite a few gifts from here for myself, family and friends and really enjoyed looking through all of the quirky items from the different artists.
