An easy evening around Gwanghwamun
Start at Gwanghwamun Square and walk toward Cheonggye Plaza, keeping dinner in the same central neighborhood. You can enjoy the city at street level without buying an observatory ticket. The route ends at the plaza; walking the full stream is a separate, much longer outing.
