A massive architectural marvel. It was raining so we couldnt take the tour from the rooftop but seeing it from the outside-inside was very satisfying. Walking inside the sloping path that followed the contour of the building and you cant help but notice how its built solid. There was some sort of fashion week upcoming so parts were closed off. Managed to enter an exhibit and it was enjoyable

Iconic building that should be on your list when visiting Seoul. Occasionally,you can find paid exceptions from independent artists here. Otherwise its completely free to visit.

I loved this place. The architecture is simply amazing. I went back another day to explore the inside and there was a lot to see. Very inexpensive (basically free) admittance to a really interesting museum/gallery, another free gallery on a different level, spacious cafe, photogenic staircase, a really fascinating skincare store (B the B - a must visit for anyone interested in skincare), and quite a few restaurants and cafes.
