Gyeongdong Market

Korea's most famous Oriental medicine market has over 1,000 shops selling Oriental medicines, vegetables, and Korean spices. Shoppers' senses will be besieged by piquant smells and exotic sights. Stalls lining the alleys sell a variety of rare medicinal herbs like ginseng, and yeongji mushrooms.

There are also more than 3,000 types of medicinal herbs that are grown by the sellers themselves. Ginseng, which can be bought at over 300 of the shops and stalls, is brought directly from the areas of production and can be purchased cheaper than in department stores. Fresh ginseng, ginseng extract and ginseng tea are some of the bestselling goods.
