[City Night Walk Course]
From Story-Filled Yongsan Park to the Lights of Nodeul Island

Course Explanation

[City Night Walk Course] From story-filled Yongsan Park to the lights of Nodeul Island.Yongsan Park → Shinryu Yongsan → Nodeul Island → LOAF LOAF

Just a few steps from the heart of Seoul, the city’s night reveals an entirely different charm. Yongsan Park, once the site of U.S. military officers’ housing and now returned to the public, is a peaceful retreat where history meets nature. Sunlight and breeze passing between the red-brick buildings quietly hold traces of Seoul’s past.

 

After a stroll, enjoy modern Chinese cuisine at Shinryu Yongsan, located beneath Sinyongsan Station. Blending the rich flavors of traditional Chinese cuisine with a modern touch, this restaurant captivates food lovers with its refined atmosphere and attentive service.

 

As the sun begins to set, make your way to Nodeul Island, a place where the last light of the day gently lingers. From the island, the golden skyline of Yeouido and the 63 Building unfolds before you, offering one of Seoul’s most iconic night views. Pause for a moment and listen to the quiet stories the city shares at the end of the day.

 

Finish your journey at LOAF LOAF, a stylish brunch café. Pair authentic European-style bread with fragrant coffee or a glass of wine, and let the day’s fatigue melt away.
