Bosu-dong Bookstore Alley
The 50-year-old bookstore alley in Bosu-dong has no shortage of books, second-hand and new. Scores of old bookstores fill the alley. Students cro-wd the area when each semester begins to buy or sell their text books at cheap prices.
Come for an afternoon of treasure hunting, as some books no longer on the market can be found here, along with some great bargains. Grab a cup of coffee at one of book cafes around the alley and relax. The annual bookstore alley festival offers events such as free book exchanges and antique book displays.
- How to get there: Get off at Jagalchi Station (Metro line 1). Walk about 20 minutes from the subway station.
