Myeongdong is Korea's best-known shopping district. It is regarded as Taipei's Ximending or Japan's Shibuya Crossing. Shoppers can enjoy shopping for local and international brands of cosmetics, clothes, shoes and accessories at the pedestrian-friendly zone. When you stroll along the streets of Myeongdong, you will notice many stores with different promotions and promoters in front of their stores who will attract guests with free samples of beauty products and immediate tax refund service. Around 4pm until nighttime, you will discover a lot of push carts line-up the streets offering variety of street foods with price ranging from 1,000 to 10,000 won. I strongly recommend travelers to visit Myeongdong at night because some shops only open in the late afternoon until 10pm.One of the most cost-effective ways to get to Myeongdong is through subway lines 2 (Euljiro 1-ga Station, Exit 5 or 6, green line) and 4 (Myeongdong Station, Exit 6, blue line).
