Hvis du vil opleve atmosfæren i Joseon-dynastiet, er dette sted et must-visit for dig. Det ligger i nærheden af Gyeongbokgung-paladset, og hele dets eksistens var det et kvarter, der var populært blandt aristokratiet (og rige mennesker generelt). Dets navn oversættes som den "nordlige landsby", og den består af mange hanoks, traditionelle koreanske huse.
Der er mange forskellige attraktioner beliggende i det område, som du kan besøge (f.eks. Unhyeongung - paladset, museet for koreansk buddhistisk kunst eller Han Sangsoo broderiværksted). For bedre navigation skal du overveje at få et nyttigt kort i Informationscenter.
Da komplekset er temmelig stort, skal du huske at spare tid nok til besøget.
Guided tours through the village run daily at 10 am and 2 pm (also at 3 pm on weekends) and need to be booked at least three days in advance (groups need to book five days in advance).
Tours are offered in Chinese, English, Japanese and Korean language.
