Culture Station Seoul 284

Seoul Station · Historic Building · Free

Everyone who arrived in modern Seoul once passed under this dome. I love a building that was the whole country's threshold, now kept as a memory of itself.

The original 1925 Seoul Station, a red-brick Japanese-built terminal restored as an exhibition hall — the front door through which the colonial and postwar city moved.
