Sungshin Women's University Shopping Tour

Hello, everyone! We are Creatrip, a group of travel experts.


Everyone should know that Seoul's business district always develops around the university.

Therefore, the business districts such as Konkuk University, Hongik University, Ewha University and Shinchon are very developed and loved by many tourists.

Today, I would like to introduce another university business district that is popular among locals.

The place is called "Sungshin Women's University Shopping District" which is also known as one of the three major women’s streets.

If you want to get rid of the touristy places, come to Sungshin Women's University near Hyehwa for shopping!
