Free admission + few people, great for taking photos🔥This retro Korean street is a must-visit spot! It’s right behind Gyeongbokgung Palace📍

#7月發文留言活动2025 Speaking of Gyeongbokgung Palace, many people know that they need to change into hanbok and take photos. But there is actually a place next to it that is worth visiting: Seoul National Folk Museum! ✨✨ Not only is there no admission fee, but there is also a hanok area and retro streetscape that are perfect for taking photos. The main point is that there are not many people, it is really very Buddhist and fun to visit😍 This time I walked here after changing into hanbok and taking photos of Gyeongbokgung Palace. The Folk Museum is at the back door of Gyeongbokgung Palace, and it takes about five minutes to walk from the Geunjeongjeon Palace~⏱️ The exterior of the Seoul National Folk Museum is a very special pagoda-style building🏯 The white walls are matched with turquoise tiles, and you can see it at a distance! What really surprised me was the "Street of Memory" outdoors at the Seoul National Folk Museum. The whole street recreates the daily scenery of Korea from the 1960s to the 1980s. There are stationery stores, barber shops, comic book stores, and small shops. Each one is super retro, and even the interior is very exquisite, like walking into the scene of an old Korean drama📺. And there are very few people! No matter how you take pictures, no one steals the spotlight✨. There happened to be a small cultural carnival event when I went there that day🎉. There were stalls from different countries on site~ The whole vibe is super plus✨. If you like to capture the cultural atmosphere and want to take pictures of different Korean scenery, this kind of irregular outdoor activities is really recommended! 📍Address: 37 Samcheong-ro, Jongno-gu, Seoul 🚇Transportation: Subway Line 3 Gyeongbokgung Station Exit 5, about a 10-minute walk 💰Tickets: Free 🕰️Opening hours: * 09:00-18:00 (March-October) * 09:00-17:00 (November-February) * Extended to 20:00 on the last Wednesday of each month (Cultural Day) * Closed on Tuesdays🗣️Guide language: Korean, English, and Chinese guides are available (subject to the schedule of the day)
