About this Stone

One of the oldest and largest traditional markets in Korea, this place has been a vibrant hub of commerce since 1414 during the early Joseon era, making it over 600 years old and still thriving today. With more than 10,000 shops lining narrow lanes, vendors sell everything from handmade crafts and kitchenware to clothes, snacks, and street-food classics. The energy here is palpable from early morning until late at night, with merchants calling out their best deals and locals weaving through the bustling aisles. It’s the kind of place where you can spend hours wandering, discovering hidden gems, and soaking up authentic local life away from tourist-heavy districts.
