During my 3-day, 2-night stay at the GloKa Hotel in Gwanghwamun, I visited Deoksugung Palace, Namdaemun Market, Seoul City Hall, and enjoyed a date in Myeongdong. Here's a look at Wangbijip, where we had lunch, Seoul City Hall, and a women's clothing store in Namdaemun Market.

Demo units were stationed in front of the GloKa Hotel, so we quickly escaped to Deoksugung Palace for sightseeing. Afterwards, we passed by Seoul City Hall and had a date in Myeongdong and Namdaemun Market. A Yellow Balloon City Bus happened to be passing by. The open-top double-decker bus reminded me of the city tour buses in Australia. I'll introduce Deoksugung Palace separately.

Seoul City Hall

Here's an overview of the Seoul City Hall building.

This is the interior of Seoul City Hall, featuring a long, tall sculpture in the shape of balloons.

There are green plants growing on the wall, which looked great. They are real, living plants.

It was gratifying to see that touring City Hall seems to have become a course for foreign tourists.

I touched it, and it was a real plant.

This is an LED video promoting the image of Seoul.

This is the lobby on the first floor of Seoul City Hall. Even on the weekend, there were foreign and domestic tourists resting.

The plants were growing, so the fresh green appearance was visually appealing.

It seems that there is a Sky Plaza Gallery on the 8th floor and a Sky Plaza Cafe on the 11th floor.

Here are the Haetae & Soul Friends goods, symbols of Seoul.

The upward-pointing plant interior looked so good.

Myeongdong Date

Myeongdong Pork Cutlet

My wife said she wanted Myeongdong pork cutlet, so we went to find it, but we didn't go inside. We wandered around a bit to find another restaurant for lunch.

I could see the price of Myeongdong pork cutlet from the outside. Food prices for eating out are very high in Korea.

Myeongdong Pork Cutlet seems to have been aired on TV as the home of a pork cutlet master.

Wangbijip Korean Restaurant

To get lunch, we looked through the alleys and managed to find Wangbijip, a Korean restaurant in Myeongdong, and we ate there with satisfaction. There were many customers going down the stairs.

I checked the prices on the outdoor menu first. It actually comes out like the picture.

This is the entrance to Wangbijip.

It shows the history of Wangbijip, starting with the main store in 2006. My reflection came out in the mirror. Haha.

This is a menu promotion inside.

This is a Hanbok hung next to the waiting chairs at the entrance. It's a men's Hanbok, and it looked like a warrior's attire.

There were many customers inside, so I was relieved that it was a good restaurant.

This is a self-service station in one corner where you can make Hangang ramen and fried eggs.

Hangang ramen and eggs were available, so we made and ate three fried eggs.

They were telling me how to eat free after-dinner food, but we passed.

I ate Mul Naengmyeon (cold noodles), which came with Bulgogi (Korean marinated beef).

Namdaemun Market

After a delicious lunch, on the way back, I stopped by the Shinsegae Department Store and shopped for women's clothing at the entrance to Namdaemun Market, which is right behind the department store, and returned to the hotel.
