Sorry! We don't have any recommendations for Seoul right now.
When it comes to shopping, prices in Seoul are similar to those in the U.S. The highlight of shopping here is discovering handicrafts and Korean brands and not available back home. Insadong is a good place to look for souvenirs, Itaewon for inexpensive, high-quality tailored suits, and Gangnam for high-end fashion.
Head to the second floor of the warehouse to find this shop of curated knick-knacks, which sells everything from hand-crafted wooden spoons to vintage china and illustrated postcards. Visitors looking for medium-priced souvenirs can find local ceramics for reasonable prices and have a cup of coffee by the window, as the older couple who run the establishment also sell beverages.
The best place in town to pick up beautiful plates and handmade ceramics, this is where affluent residents of Gangnam shop for their kitchens.
