Jongno-gu · Street
Jeongdong-gil
정동길

The street where modern Seoul began — stone walls, fallen leaves, old legations.
In the late Joseon era, foreign legations, Korea's first modern schools and churches gathered along this street. Follow the Deoksugung wall past Chungdong First Methodist Church and the old Russian legation site, and Seoul's modern history brushes past between the trees.
