This residential neighborhood of Seoul is one of few places in the city to see restored traditional Korean homes, known as hanok. During the Joseon era, which lasted from the 1300s until the late 1800s, this was where many high-ranking government officials lived. Today, there are still about 3,000 residents, as well as cafés, galleries and locally-owned boutiques.
