hi redders,Nakedtoes,

do you have any photos taken from Dongdaemun and Namdaemun, care to share. :)
I didn't go to Namdaemun, I went to DongDaeMun at night and it was pretty crowded and dark (its not like neon lighted MyeongDong), so I did not take much pictures of that place.

This is one of the DongDaeMun picture, not well taken.

I was on this side of the road, there's an underpass (with many many shops in it) that leads to the otherside of the road where there is like "Pasar Malam" selling all kinda goods and food.

Dongdamen is better.... the tour guide said the nandaimen is like a ghost town now.... now you go mostly they sell winter clothes... and their things are not cheap..... My wife bought lots of hair clips about $5 per pc there which singapore is selling at ard $12++... you can also try their underground mall.. there are many 10000 won bags for sale.. abt ($17 sing dollar)

so what time do they close?

I don't have pictures of Dongdaemun and Namdaemun I think; for shopping, I've only got stuff from Myongdong street and Chuncheon Joongang mall on Jeju.

both redders and Nakedtoes from the same tour group?
Nope we are not in same group, but both of us travelled with Genting Holidays so the places we went to are identical. The tour guide sometimes shifted the iternary a bit here and there, so my group could have crossed Nakedtoes's group during own trip.

you using prosumer camera, no wonder pic taken so nice.
it is really sad to know you cannot upload the photos, maybe your pic size is too big.
