3.  Namdaemun Market

Namdaemun Market is one of the oldest continually running markets in South Korea, and one of the largest

retail markets in Seoul. The streets in which the market is located were built in a time when cars were not prevalent,

so the market itself is not accessible by car. The main methods of transporting goods into and out of the market are

by motorcycle and hand-drawn carts. It occupies many city blocks, which are blocked off from most car traffic due to

the prevalence of parking congestion in the area. The market can be accessed by subway or bus; the location iswithin a 10 minute walk from Seoul metropolitan station and is even closer to the subway Hoehyeon Station, Line 4. 

Much of the market is outside, but there are also many stores which line the streets. Many retailers buy their

items, particularly clothing, at wholesale prices at Namdaemun, to resell in their own stores in other cities.
