Ogindan Dandan House / SML

Ogindan Dandan is on the left side of Gyeongbokgung Palace in Seochon. Cafes and restaurants can be found one after another along the street from Gyeongbokgung Station, but the area is quiet because it is somewhat far from the main boulevard. The site where Ogindan Dandan is located sits at the end of the mountain ridge to the west. To be exact, the road next to it was created at a right angle to the mountain range, and the land next to the road was used to build the last house in the village that was formed all the way to the bottom of the mountain. It would be appropriate to say that the stature of the place can be appreciated from the east, west, and south sides.
