Why travelers stop here
Established in the 1970s, this is the most historic traditional market in Gwangjin-gu, well-maintained as an alley-type market. It is easily accessible as it is a short walk from Konkuk University Station, and various foods such as nostalgic tteokbokki and traditional snacks are popular. Walking a bit further toward the north end of Yeongdong Bridge leads directly to Yeongdonggyo Alley Market, allowing visitors to enjoy both markets simultaneously. Filled with hearty food options, it is a market frequently visited by people of all ages, and the shops located in the alleys give visitors a warm, friendly feel as a traditional market.
