Dongmyo 동묘앞 Station: What's in there? (part 2)

 Before taking a close-up look into what Dongmyo is selling to its visitors, I'd like to post the cloudy and chilly morning when I got there.

This is a bridge over Cheonggyecheon river that leads to the one of the so many entrances to Dongmyo flea market.

Today, the sky was a bit dull and gosh...it didn't quite what I expected... 

But it didn't dampen my spirit of exploring the market.

A huge load of I-did-not-know-what ...just passed me by.

I guess it's one of the typical activities there.

hmm a nice view to see some activities like this while people were just opening up their stores. 

A just-opened store..I mean they just finished putting the racks of used-clothes onto the front part of the store. Even the stores next to it were still closed.

They cost roughly from 5,000 to 10,000 Won.

Dongmyo has a market for themselves. 

Lamp streets on the bridge leading to Dongmyo. 

Then..I started to see some people bargaining or just looking at the items or collectibles tossed on the street. well, not tossed off, of course.

With the colorful leaves in front of the stores, I think it kinda gave me a different feeling of being in a flea market with style.

Dongmyo 동묘앞 station: What's in there? (part 1)

Got about an hour or two before my Friday prayer so I might as well take a stroll along the familiar station that I pass almost on a daily basis. (almost).

Yes..Dongmyo Station--which is famous for its knick-knack stuffs or second-hand stuffs sold cheap. Broke cheap, in fact.:) 

So...I was surprised to find this...wait..is this the one I had in mind?.

to some extent, it is. 

The autumn foliage still lingered on the trees at the Dongmyo Shrine (located next to the exit 3 of Dongmyo Station line 6). 

Okay, it's around 9.30 am so practically not many people were visible, let alone the opened shops that usually do their business.

now let's enjoy the contrast between the left and right sight of the street. 

A close-up rendition of what the wall really looked like. The pedestrian/walking path was not crowded. Even, just one ajumma was visible walking down on it.

After noon, this place is surely packed with lots of people and street vendors.
