One of the best things about Arc N Books is its atmosphere. From the cozy lighting to the rich wood tables, I felt comfortable simply scanning the aisles of books or listening to the quiet chatter nearby.
Read a book, buy a cute postcard, or listen to music while you browse this lovely book lover’s paradise.
ALSO, Arc N Books has two locations! The second one is smaller and can be found in Lotte World Mall.
Daeo Bookstore Cafe
Address: 03036 55 Jahamun-ro 7-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul
Okay, this bookstore may not look like much from the outside, but once you step inside you’ll know why it’s on my list. This bookstore is located in a traditional hanok home in Seochon village, an area of neighborhoods filled with cafes and other hanok houses. It’s in northern Seoul, not too far from Gyeongbokgung Palace, the largest palace from the Joseon Dynasty. This whole area has many lovely cafes and shops that are definitely worth exploring.
