It’s a gorgeous place to take a nice stroll and just admire the beauty of the houses ~ At the top of the hill is a great place to take a nice shot of the streets with the traditional houses aligned alongside. Do take note that this place is only opened from 10am-5pm due to it being a residential area. It may be crowded at certain times, so do try to keep your voices/noises down to try not to dist...

The area is as you would imagine, what really elevates it is the peaceful nature and respect visiting people have for it by being quiet and keeping the area clean. It is lovely to see the hanoks being maintained beautifully and the views over some of the city are worth a visit. Please note that on Sundays some of the alley ways close to allow a break from tourist traffic.

It has a great scenery at the top of the small hill. The hill ain't steep so don't worry about your energy. You will pass traditional Korean houses, some of them even have people living in it. Sure good place for photo taking. I very recommended going there.
