Explanation
Ikseon-dong Hanok Street refers to the street connecting Exit 6 of Jongno 3(sam)-ga Station to the Ibis Ambassador Insadong (31 Samil-daero 30-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul). With hanok buildings like no other in Seoul, it has become a staple of Seoul tours for domestic and international visitors. Today’s Ikseon-dong Hanok Street houses many restaurants, cafes, and shops in renovated hanok buildings. In the past, this neighborhood was close to the palaces of the Joseon dynasty, so it was home to high-ranking dignitaries, including prominent aristocrats. Because of this, there are many large houses with tiled roofs (giwa), giving the street a traditional look overall. Its designation as a Hanok Preservation District in 2018 resulted in many local shops moving into the neighborhood. The streets here are a spider web of narrow alleys that make it difficult to navigate freely, so visitors are advised to pay attention to their surroundings when traveling in the area.
