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.

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 resi...
