During our tour of Korea, we were also given a few hours to walk around another shopping district, Myeongdong. The shops in this area is almost a pedestrian area and quite pleasant to walk around.
With many shops, the ladies are loving this place and one of the main items to shop here is cosmetics. Apparently the cosmetics here are very good (see the beautiful skin of the Korean actresses and singers).
There were also a number of Christmas trees and also Christian volunteers preaching and singing Christmas hymns. The presence of the Salvation Army was also quite prominent. This is not surprising when you take into account that almost half of Koreans are Christians.
The time passed rather quickly here and very soon, it was time to move on again, that's the problem with joining a group tour as they always try to jam pack the itenary and you end of seeing many places but not being able to really experience the place properly.
Until the next time, cheers.
