Bukchon Hanok Village: The most representative traditional residential area, "the street museum in the city center"

I am Guanhai Tingtao tour+ global traveler, please follow me! (Published the 1408th travel photography article in 51 countries across 5 continents) Bukchon Hanok Village is the most representative traditional residential area in Seoul, where traditional Korean houses are densely located. Therefore, it is known as "the street museum in the city center". The village got its name "Bukchon", meaning "northern village", because it is located above Cheonggyecheon Stream and Jongno. It was once the residence of royalty and high-ranking officials during the Joseon Dynasty. Nowadays, many residents still live here, but with the entry of Hanok galleries, unique guesthouses, traditional workshops, and Korean restaurants, it has become a new cultural and artistic area that tourists love. Bukchon is a village suitable for walking, with small streets and alleys crisscrossing and stacking up like a maze, filled with a strong sense of life. Walking around here, having some snacks, sitting down for a coffee, and taking some photos, an afternoon passes by without notice.
