It's nice to see Myeongdong bustling again after the pandemic. Shops have changed and some shops have changed their locations. Need to re-orientate myself. It's a good place to go for shopping and eating street food

So unlike anything I have experienced in the United States or Mexico. The shopping area was phenomenal! If you go one direction you will find all kids clothes, another direction offers purses (probably knock offs), and yet another offers cosmetics! If given more time I wanted to come back to visit this area again.

This is the best place for shopping for korean cosmetics, most the retail shop offer tourist tax refund above ₩30,000. During the night time, there are tons of korean street food to explore. Highly recommended for first time visitor or shopaholic.

Myeong-dong is one of our favorite places to visit each time we’re in Seoul. We traveled extensively and there’s no other place like this, so vibrant & lively. There are so many streets that will take you a few days to walk around which are filled with street food vendors, K-Beauty shops, many offering tax-free purchases, infinite number of restaurants and many clothing & souvenirs shops. It’s conveniently located near a few subway stops and near Namsaemun market. It’s a MUST place to visit when in Seoul!

Visited Namdaemun Market and Myeongdong in the same day as they were close to each other. The streets were filled with many people walking around shopping for many fashion, beauty, and souvenir shops. Street foods are also present in the area. Definitely a place for shopping beauty items.

Something is different since the last I was here - pre Covid. The crowd are still there, but the excitement has reduced. The street food are still there, but it lost the Korean feel. The shops are there but the people are somewhere else. Don’t get me wrong, myeongdong is still one of the first places you have to visit when first in Seoul. Vibrant, energetic, fun, colorful. Just wished that this is my first visit.

Located in the city hall area, actually right across from the main Lotte Department Store is The Myeongdong shopping area. It is a high energy and busy complex of many criss crossing streets with very many stores both brand name and smaller local stores. You will find a plethora of cosmetic shops sometimes one after the other. You should be able to satisfy all your shopping needs and eating needs also as the area has hundreds of restaurants and coffee and tea shops. Yes, McDonald's and Starbucks are there. The Myeongdong Cathedral also located there.

Not only shopping, strew food too. Colorful, crowded, impressive. Take your time, stroll around both the main street and the small roads, shop, grad a snack. Our hotel was just around the corner and we visited repeatedly. Never disappointed!!

This is one of the must-see areas in Seoul Korea, I just loved it ! You find tones of souvenir, beauty, phones accessories, gadgets and cute items shops, food stores and Korean markets and of course street food everywhere you look from sweet treats to salty variety.We spent hours moving here and there trying out foods and ending the tour with a visit to one of the biggest Daiso stores (my favorite brand!) If you are into skin care and beauty products Myeongdong is a heavenly destination.There is also an underground market below the shopping street you can get there from the main subway station.We traveled twice the 1st time was in october and the second in July.we spent 2 months total in South Korea and so I got plenty of time to discover most of it and experienced the Myeongdong phenomenon many time! You can also buy akin care products with cheap prices. Just dont forget your passport or at least a photo of it .

In Myeongdong Shopping Street in which there are more foreigners than Koreans, I could hear various languages. There are many food stalls on the streets, so it is good to try many kinds of street food such as Korean food. The streets were filled with many people walking around shopping for many fashion, beauty, and souvenir shops. It is the sights to shop for beauty products. But there are so many people on the street that it's hard to pull over. If you go to Seoul, I recommend it because it's a good place to see at least once.
