I’d heard the jarak-gil trail in Seodaemun was a great place for a walk, so I went to see for myself.
A mart on the way
I had no idea, but apparently Sprite and Galbae Cider are connected to Namyang. I’ll have to be careful not to drink them without realizing.

“Wait, there’s a path here?” was my first thought..
Heading for Ewha’s University-Industry Cooperation Building..
I went right around the back and a rural landscape suddenly appeared.. I never imagined there was a place like this in Seoul..
A temple
They’d done the place up rather nicely..
On the way
Spots like this too..
I couldn’t find the right path and wandered about a bit. The walking trail started inside the temple grounds, but I was looking for it outside..
You have to go up around the back of this place.
Even punching it into the navi left me unsure..
At last, the mountain path..
The jarak-gil trail
Easy on the feet, and the views were lovely.
