Seoul is a city with diverse shopping opportunities, with western style malls and departments stores standing alongside specialist arcades - check out the
Silk Arcade in Gwancheoldong and the
Jewelry Arcade in Jongno. The colossal
Coex Mall, below the World Trade Center, boasts an aquarium, cinema, games arcade and restaurants to help ease the strains of a hard day of shopping. The
World Cup Mall, Seoul World Cup Stadium, has metamorphosed the country’s landmark football stadium into a shopping center with over 100 clothing stores.
The fashion conscious should head for
Munjeongdong Fashion Street where international brands like
DKNY and
Nike can be snapped up for a fraction of the usual retail price. Similarly
Mok-
dong Street and the
Guro Fashion Valley are lined with clothing outlets.
Dongdaemun Market, a collection of shopping malls, smaller stores and market stalls with over 27,000 shops, is another great place to buy clothes.
