Hanokstay, at All-J Guesthouse in Seoul.

If you like to see a glimpse of a traditional way of living, you can do a hanokstay. South Korea has
several possibilities. We tried two so far.
The All-J Guesthouse in Seoul is situated in Insadong. The house is built in 1930. The owners renovated the rooms, but you wil sit and sleep in the traditional way. At first glance we thought that the bathroom was to small, but we managed to shower and keep all our belongings dry.
The owners are really nice people and it's seems more real then the one which is just new built in a garden. The only real feel is to sleep on the floor, but at this one we had breakfast with the owner.

Door to the room

Directions: with subway to Jongno 3-ga, exit 4. Go to the other side of the road, at your right hand you have a restaurant and left side they sell furniture (chairs). You have to walk in that gil, turn the
first gil to the right and take the one to the left with the roses. It's not possible to reach by car.
With taxi, leave the car at exit 4 from the subway.

Namaste; Indian restaurant, Janpyeong/Gohyeon

If you like to eat Indian food combined with a nice ambiance, try Namaste at Janpyeong. You can find the restaurant at the second floor from a building looking out over the water.

The food is nice and the lunch menu has a very reasonable price. We tried some curry's, differents type of bread and different appetizer's. Not in one go but at different occasions.
