Insa-dong is the centre of activity in Korea, far away from hustle and bustle of global and metro cities. Insa-dong is a 700 meter stretch starting at Tapgol Park.

On the sides of the street you can find traditional Korean clothing and famous and beautifully crafted Goryeo era Korean vases. All the way up to Insa-dong you can find all kinds of food items from different places of the world. Once inside the market, you will have a variety of Korean delicacies to feast with.

Teas of various flavours are available in the numerous tea houses which you will find in the market. For those with a penchant for different alcoholic beverages, do not miss out the exotic beverages made from rice and grain.

On Sundays, one can get a better shopping experience without worrying about traffic as traffic not permitted on the streets on Sunday.
