Korea VLOG: Bukchon Hanok Village

안녕하세요^^ 리안 입니다~ 반갑습니다
Hello I'm Riana^^
This time I went to Bukchon Hanok Village (북천한옥마을). The road to this area were uphill, just consider it as an exercise. Many local and tourist wear hanbok around this hanok village.
Surrounded by Gyeongbokgung Palace, Changdeokgung Palace and Jongmyo Shrine, Bukchon Hanok Village is home to hundreds of traditional houses, called hanok.
The name Bukchon, which literally translates to 'northern village,' came about as the neighborhood lies north of two significant Seoul landmarks, Cheonggyecheon Stream and Jongno. Today, many of these hanoks operate as cultural centers, guesthouses, restaurants and tea houses, providing visitors with an opportunity to experience traditional Korean culture. visit korea
Bukchon Hanok Village reflects 600 years of Seoul's history. Unlike other hanok villages (such as Namsangol Hanok Village), Bukchon was not created for tourists and it is a residential village inhabited by Seoulites. The best place within Bukchon to experience the old hanok atmosphere may be Gaehoe-dong.
In recent years, the charms of traditional hanok have been receiving increased attention. With recently-opened hanok galleries, craft workshops and hanok restaurants, a new kind of hanok culture is developing in Bukchon Hanok Village. Every nook in this village seems to contain traces of history.
Although Bukchon Hanok Village is Seoul's representative hanok village, it is home to many average Seoulites. The area is a residential neighborhood where people actually live. Please make the trip to Bukchon a quiet trip, do not litter, do not use loudspeakers and do not take photos or film the interios of the house. visit seoul
