Su Yeon San Bang (수연산방) tea house
After late lunch, we headed out to suyeonsanbang (수연산방) tea house in Seongbuk-Dong. This quiet traditional tea house used to be a hanok residence of the late Korean author Lee Taejun. This classic abode, with its unassuming beauty, is indeed an ideal place to take a respite from the hustle and bustle of hectic city life. Their noteworthy menu items include blueberry makgeolli and patbingsu (shaved ice dessert, excellent for summer).
From udon restaurant near Jonggak station, we took buses 150 and 2112. Alternatively, you can take subway to Hansung University Station then change to bus.
How to get there: Hansung University Station, Line 4, Exit 6
Then take bus 03 or 1111 or 2112
Alight at Dongbang Graduate University
Tea house is just 3-4 min walk away
Opening hours: 11:30 - 22:00
Seriously, Google Map knows the best. Even bus arrival times were very accurate!
We were so sad to discover upon our arrival that suyeonsanbang was closed for renovation T.T
