A Memorable Street and Its Architectural Charm in Korea

One small street I visited left a big impression on me—not just because of the atmosphere, but because of its unique architecture.
It’s located in a historic district and has these old buildings with oriel windows that make the place feel timeless.

What stood out to me the most were the oriel windows on many of the buildings.
You can call them bay windows, but these ones were slightly elevated and curved outward, which gave the street a unique character.
Not only do they control the natural light inside, but they also allow people to peek outside without fully opening a door or window.

The street was only about 300 meters long, but it was packed with charm.
Even if you walk slowly, it takes less than five minutes.
Still, it’s considered a must-see spot for tourists in Korea, especially those interested in traditional Korean-European blended architecture.

That short walk reminded me that a place doesn’t have to be big or flashy to leave a deep impression.
Sometimes, it’s the quiet corners and subtle designs—like those windows—that stay with you the longest.
