Great place to visit! I visited during Chuseok and the place was relatively busy with family's, teenagers and tourists. I would highly recommend hiring a bike (or one of the scooter / motor bike things) and riding along the river as it is extremely beautiful! #GiveThanks

Very nice scenery. It is handy to go ip to Palgongsan mountain by cable car and from there higher up to the top. You can walk all the way over the ridge of the mountains (very long hike). You can also come down and pass by Bongwasa temple. #GiveThanks

Strolling through the Ximen Market, there are many different Korean style small jewelry shops. Exquisite coin purses, small sachets, and a lot of gadgets that are not famous. You can buy small things that you can't buy anywhere else. I heard that hanbok is worn in important festivals in Korea, especially when you are married, so when new people prepare for the wedding, they will also be prepared for hanbok. If you are tickle in your heart and want to try it on, you can. And the Korean aunt in the market will be very enthusiastic to help you try on.
