Wandering through local markets is one of the simplest pleasures of life in Asia.
Seomun Market ; The narrow alleys were lined with countless noodle stalls, and I was overwhelmed by the sheer number of people packed into the market. The energy of the place was incredible.
The casually arranged displays are part of what makes Asian markets so fascinating. I could wander around for hours without ever getting bored.

The night market is famous for its glowing lights, but during the day it’s much quieter — perfect for a relaxed photo walk.
