Take a break at Haebangchon

If you're looking to experience a unique side of Seoul, I highly recommend visiting the Haebangchon (해방촌) neighborhood. This historic area, located near the base of Namsan Mountain, has transformed into a hub of trendy restaurants and chic cafes.

The atmosphere here is a perfect blend of traditional and modern vibes. Strolling through the narrow alleys, you'll find everything from homemade Korean eateries, American-style burger joints, stylish bakery cafes, to cozy bars playing great music for a relaxed evening drink.

What makes Haebangchon truly special is its diversity of people and cultures. The neighborhood is home to both locals and expats, creating a wonderfully international ambiance.
