Build this weather-proof route around the Leeum Museum of Art, then explore Hannam-dong at a slower pace. Check exhibition reservations before setting out.

A low-pressure Seoul route for a picnic, a flat riverside walk and sunset. Festival days can be exceptionally crowded, so check city notices first.

Look beyond pop-ups to the handmade-shoe workshops and industrial fabric that shaped Seongsu. Weekday mornings make the narrow streets much easier to explore.

Pair Seoul’s largest fish market with Sayuksin Park for two very different views of the district. Confirm seafood, preparation and table charges before ordering.

Follow a local rhythm from Mangwon Market through residential lanes to the river. The park is about 1.5 km from the station, so adjust for heat, rain and shopping bags.
