Daehangno Theatre District

대학로

Hyehwa, Seoul · 서울

The street theatre district around Hyehwa station, holding some 150 small venues, plus Marronnier Park where students perform in the open all summer.

Why it’s worth it

Nowhere in Asia has this density of small stages. Many shows are non-verbal or musical, so the language barrier matters far less than you would expect.
