The light thins over Seoul as you climb a short stretch of stone steps and the city uncoils below—Naksan Park’s hillside offers a clear line to N Seoul Tower and the ridgeline of the old fortress wall. Street lamps begin to wink on in Hyehwa while the breeze from the Han River cools a late-afternoon walk; the city hums, the walls hold their quiet watch.
