Ditch the rush-hour commute and head to the Seoul Museum of Craft Art for a serene evening experience. Situated in the heart of central Seoul, just a short distance from Anguk Station, the museum is nestled at the entrance to the historic Insa-dong and Bukchon areas.
This fall, the museum is offering unique evening programs to its residents and visitors. Among the offerings are open-air yoga sessions, heritage runs through the picturesque Bukchon, and hands-on traditional craft workshops. These activities aim to provide more leisure options for locals as well as bolster Seoul's efforts to promote nighttime cultural activities.
The first yoga and meditation sessions commence on September 19 and will run through October 14. Six sessions are scheduled at 6:30 p.m., taking place in outdoor areas such as the Craft Yard and rooftop. Participants will be guided by professional instructors through yoga and meditation, with soothing sounds like singing bowls, a traditional Korean plucked zither, handpans, and gongs providing the backdrop. It is anticipated that around 880 individuals will take part in these sessions.
The Seoul Museum of Craft Art is poised to become a new hub for evening relaxation and cultural exploration in the city.
