On the walk home yesterday...
Strolling about Insa-dong with Noe Alonzo and Charles Mai, two much more talented photographers than myself.
A little bit of Seoul’s old urban grit, somewhere near Insa-dong.
Neon, graffiti and shadows - just my sort of alley.
Just across from Jogyesa Temple, Insa-dong.
The old city and the new.

Delightful Korean Buddhist temple cuisine at Balwoo Gongyang, located on the fifth floor of the TempleStay Information Center near Insa-dong.
The name of the restaurant comes from the Buddhist term for monastic meals.

Various Jejudo green tea concoctions at O'sulloc Tea House, Insa-dong.
A "lake" of hanok roofs hidden in Insa-dong. Many of these hanok are pubs and restaurants. In fact, one of my favorite pubs, Story of the Blue Star, is located in the upper right corner.
And with these two shots, I complete my first 365 Project!
Insa-dong alleway.
The old cathedral-like building in the background is the Cheondogyo Central Temple. The teahouse to the right is Gwicheon, which was run by the wife of late poet Chun Sang-byung until her death in 2010.
Beautiful room at O'sulloc Tea House, Insa-dong.
