Top 10 Things to do in Ihwa-dong, South Korea

March 24, 2022 Mollie Coke

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.

Lavish Spa

Reviewed By gruhltr

The massages at LavishSpa are outstanding and reasonably priced ($85-$95USD for 60 min) given the quality. I'd highly recommend the LavishSpa Signature massage for a more pressure-packed spin on a traditional Swedish massage. The oil options were very nice and we were provided with peppermint tea prior to heading out for the day. Great experience!

Naksan Park

Reviewed By Jinx_15 - Jakarta, Indonesia

Famous place from all the K-Drama. We visited it while walking in the Ihwa Mural Village. We didn't pick the Naksan Park path, instead we climb the Ihwa Mural Village until we find the famous wall where all the K-Drama happening. It's nice and we'll probably hike the Naksan Park if it's not raining

Ihwa Mural Village

Reviewed By katfuz - Seoul, South Korea

I really enjoyed walking around here and checking out the various wall murals, artsy corners as well as traditional houses and stores. Had a nice bingsu - shaved ice korean dessert with red beans to cool off from the heat. A lot of stores and restaurants were closed during the time I visited due to corona virus; however, I was lucky the streets were not packed with many tourists and people. Coming here offered a little escape into the past. I recommend visiting this artsy village when you are in Seoul.
