Roamed Around the Streets of Seoul

Solo trip in South Korea. Arrived in Seoul with no definite plan in mind.

Gwanghwamun, the main gate of Gyeongbokgung Palace seen from the Gwanghwamun Square.

First day in Seoul, the weather wasn’t that good. From Gwanghwamun Square I walked to the Bukchon Hanok Village, it started to rain and I went in to a small food shop there. Decided to order some kind of noodles in the menu that looks red and alluring. Turned out that thing is called ramyun jjampong. Spiciest noodles ever, it’s only my first day and I already made a worst decision.

Exploring the narrow streets and alleys of the traditional village would be much more exciting if it’s not cloudy & wet. I felt kinda off and decided just to end the day & go back to my hostel.
