Korea – Insadong Old Street
Insadong Old Street is located right in the heart of Seoul. Along this street, there are many interesting stops for those who love Korean culture.
Running from Jongno-yiga to Anguk-dong intersection in the heart of Seoul, Insadong is proud, separated from high-rise buildings and luxurious life. The pretty houses are located close together on both sides of the old street, making visitors feel like they are lost in the middle of a poetic fairy garden.
On weekends, all vehicles are banned in Insadong, so this place becomes a crowded walking street, attracting many tourists. The street stalls are beautifully decorated with cafes, souvenir shops, restaurants with classic decoration with sweet colors, etc. In addition, the 3D art museum, which displays many 3D art paintings, also promises many unforgettable experiences.
The Land of the Rising Sun is a place loved by many tourists because of its unique culture and that is also the reason why the old town of Asakusa in Japan has become the most chosen destination.
Asakusa is located in Taito district, Tokyo capital - before the Edo period, it was a bustling and prosperous neighborhood. With the desire to preserve the images of the glorious past, Asakusa still retains intact the architectural works built in the 50s and 60s of the last century.
Here is Asakusa Temple - the oldest temple in Tokyo. The highlight of Asakusa Temple is the giant lantern hanging in front of the gate and the majestic entrance. Although it was built in the 7th century, Asakusa Temple still attracts a large number of Buddhists to visit every year. In the Asakusa Temple grounds is a large architectural complex with the ancient 250m long Nakamise-Dori shopping street, Asakusa main hall, Asakusa Shinto shrine, ...
In addition, visitors can learn more about traditional industrial arts and culture at Edo Shita Machi, where there is a gallery displaying products made by Edo-period artisans such as dolls, knives, paper fans, etc., which also promises many interesting experiences.poop
Taiwan –Shifen Old Street
Shifen Old Town is favored as the soul of the beautiful Pearl Island. Going back in history, this place used to be a developed coal mining area, contributing a lot to the local economy. Later, Shifen gradually became a tourist city attracting many visitors.
The highlight of this old town is probably the 12.9 km long railway running through it, with restaurants and souvenir shops on both sides of the street decorated with red lanterns stretching across the street. The small alleys and old houses are located close together, neatly creating a very special nostalgic feeling.
In the past, thanks to abundant resources as well as financial development, people here were very interested in spiritual pleasures such as throwing con and releasing sky lanterns. People here believe that whoever writes their name and wishes and releases them into the sky, God will see and make their dreams come true. Since then, releasing sky lanterns has become a "specialty" of the old town of Shifen, attracting many tourists to visit and experience decorating and releasing sky lanterns on the railway tracks. If you are a food lover, it is not difficult to find some delicious and cheap dishes along the road.
