Dongdaemun Design Plaza (DDP)

A futuristic complex by world-famous architect Zaha Hadid, a fashion and design center with flowing lines and modern aesthetics. Located in the Dongdaemun area. A venue for exhibitions, forums, fashion shows, biennales, etc.

Naksan Mountain City Wall

On the first day of the first lunar month in 1395, the first king of the Li (Joseon) Dynasty, Taejo, founded a special department, the only task of which was to build a fortress wall to protect the new capital of the young state. The department was called Doson Chhukcho Togam, meaning, literally, "City Wall Building Department". No less than 197,000 workers were placed at the disposal of TChT. Naturally, at that time they were not hired, but driven away. Such were the times.


This army completed the wall in less than 100 days (98 days to be exact). The wall stretched along the four Feng Shui mountains surrounding Seoul (by the way, then it was called Hanyang): Namsan, Inwangsan, Pugaksan and Naksan.


It is precisely along Naksan (Camel Mountain) that we will walk with you today. And at the same time we will find out what the camel has to do with it (and what the dragon has to do with it, by the way).

Ihwa Mural Village

On the slope of Mount Naksan, there is an area called Inhwa-dong, beautifully painted by artists. Graffiti, cafes, small shops and shops, bars overlooking Inhwa-dong. Don't forget to bring your camera - after all, the district was painted especially for those who like to take pictures!

Daehak-ro

Cafes, restaurants, theatres, youth... Several old universities. Daehanno District is located in the historical center, near the palaces (the nearest is Changgyeonggung), next to the ancient Confucian academy Sungkyunkwan. East Gate - Dongdaemun - about 15 minutes on foot. In the background is a small mountain Naksan, along which stretches a section of the Seoul fortress wall...
