Day 6: Another university area to explore, eat and shop - Hyehwadong, Seoul

Got tired of going to the same places over and over again.  Decided to leave Hongdae and head to another area for shopping and exploring.  Came to Hyehwadong.  Got out at Hyehwa Station exit 4 and it's like a smaller, quieter version of Ewha Women's University.  It seems better actually as people say many shops in Ewha are closing down.  Here at Hyehwa, stores were very much opened.  They have all the usual shops Hongdae would have.  Clothes, accessories, bags, lots of random crap that we can't help but buy.

Is it just me? Or are the clothes here cheaper than in Hongdae?  Not sure if it was because it was during the day, but the shops were so empty.  The streets weren't crowded like Hongdae, making it so much more enjoyable to walk around.

More random crap to waste your money with.



There were many pretty buildings and cafes as well.  Again, no line up needed!  Love that.

Not a bad place to hang out for the day.
