Bukchon Hanok Village is lined with old-fashioned buildings. It's a very popular spot, so if you don't consider the time you go, it will be very crowded. I went early in the morning to take a photo of myself alone like the first one, and it was a great idea! There was hardly anyone there☺️ It was easy to take photos, and I was able to quietly enjoy the atmosphere of this building and this scenery😊 And while the main area was crowded, there was no one in the place where you can see the roofs lined up in the fourth photo✨ Seoul City has selected the points where you can feel the charm of Bukchon Hanok Village as the "Bukchon Eight Views," and this roof point is one of the four Bukchon Four Views. I think one way to enjoy sightseeing in Bukchon Hanok Village is to find out where the eight views are and go around them😊 #overseastraveltrip #Seoul #Seoultrip #Seoultrip #Koreatourism #BukchonHanokVillage #북촌한옥마을 #breathtakingsightspot #Koreasolotrip #Koreagirlstrip
