Jungang Night Market

Gyeongju


This terrific night market is on the northeast corner of the Jungang Market, with a whole line of stalls selling all manner of food, from vegetarian pasta cooked up at a Filipino stall, through dishes from Pakistan and of course, Korea. Take your own beers along from a supermarket and grab a seat at a table.
