I went to the Dongdaemun Design Plaza (동대문디자인플라자) a few times when I was in South Korea. I went there a few times mainly because I used the nearest subway station exit and I went shopping and people-watching at a few malls and markets nearby. Unfortunately, I didn't get to properly go into the building because it didn't cross my mind.
All the pictures that I uploaded here were taken on my last night in South Korea. Dongdaemun Design Plaza has distinctive charms both during the day and at night but I would suggest you go at night so that you can see the ever-famous DDP LED Rose Garden.
Tip: Go to the Doota Mall and have a seat to see the Dongdaemun Design Plaza from above. You'll enjoy the view. Also, this is one of the best spots for people-watching.
On this particular visit, my aim was to see the ever-famous DDP LED Rose Garden and alhamdulillah, I've managed to fulfill my goal. There weren't many people around when I was there so that was happy news. Fewer crowds mean less photobomb when taking pictures :p
The ever-famous DDP LED Rose Garden
Tip: If you have hati tisu, please don't come alone as you probably will feel like a loser because most of the visitors here come with their friends or significant others.
The DDP LED Rose Garden is quite big in my opinion. You probably will need about 45 minutes here if you're the kind of person yang setiap ceruk pun nak ambil gambar. Otherwise, 20-30 minutes would be enough, kot? I spent about 45 minutes here because I'm that kind of person yang setiap ceruk pun nak ambil gambar. lol. Also, I spent that long here because I was people-watching the visitors.
The ever-famous DDP LED Rose Garden
Tip: Some parts of the DDP LED Rose Garden are quite dark and isolated so please be extra vigilant.
I personally don't think that I'll come here again if I were to go to South Korea again. Mainly because I've been to this place too many times though I have yet to explore the plaza itself. Having said that, I wouldn't mind to come here if I have a solid reason :)

ReplyDeleteKalau pandai tangkap gambar waktu malam, lagi cantik gambarnya. Kalau tengok in real life, rasa macam biasa-biasa je.
