Charming Cafes Await at the Top of Ihwa Mural Village

As I slowly made my way up Ihwa Mural Village, I was pleasantly surprised to find a row of small, cozy cafes near the end. Each one had its own unique charm—adorable exteriors, retro signs, and large windows that made it hard to choose where to go. Drawn by the artistic exterior of one particular cafe, I wandered in and ordered a café latte and a slice of cake. The quiet atmosphere, paired with the subtle aroma of freshly roasted coffee, gently eased my travel fatigue. I enjoyed a quintessentially Seoul experience of "unhurried moments"—a perfect break during my sightseeing adventure.
