Bedecked and beribboned

So we visited the famous Namdaemun market which, in one form or anoither, has been in Seoul since the 1400s.

It's huge and really difficult to navigate......yeah. I ended up not taking many pictures but in the end it's a market. Think of any you've been to yourself and imagine it on an enormous scale- packed tightly together, above, below, beside....

....and all the bag shops seem to be run by young men.

...and everyone has lunch delivered so they much on their noodles beside their workbenches.

....and there are several behemoths like this.



These places have enough hair accessories to bedeck every little girl in Ireland several times over.

While we were welcome to go in and shop these places are a lot like warehouses and I'm positive they sell a lot of wholesale packs.

Aside from that I have one word for the place: MEANDERING
