2014/04/19 @ 수원 [Suwon]

After getting some good food at 화로구이, we took a little walk to 팔달문 시장 [Paldalmun Market]. It's a lot like many other traditional markets, where you see a fair amount of street food, shops with traditional clothing and herbs, and many many clothing stores. It's nice, because it's conveniently located in the middle of the fortress; from here you can easily visit the wall, chicken street, or 남문 시장 [Nam-mun Market].

Suwon Station [수원역] (Seoul Subway Line 1) - Exit 4
My suggestion is to go out Exit 4 and hail a taxi. It would be less than 5,000won to go by taxi to Nam-mun. If it's a nice day, follow this map and go for a walk.
