Start below Namsan and continue north towards Euljiro for lunch. Walk by Cheonggyecheon afterwards, with Gwangjang as an optional browsing and snack stop. There is some distance between the village and the restaurant, so use transit if the weather is uncomfortable. Avoid Monday for the full route, and check public-holiday changes.
Namsangol Hanok Village
Walk the courtyards before the day gets busy. Paid experiences are optional.
Woo Lae Oak
Make this the main meal and allow for a wait.
Cheonggyecheon Stream
Return to a slower pace along the water. Use an open access point and follow weather-related closures.
Gwangjang Market
Browse or share a small snack if you still have an appetite.
