Colonial era architecture of Yongsan

by Robert Koehler on January 16, 2007

in Photos of Korea

Hey, a blogger after my own heart.

This Korean blogger walked around Yongsan-gu (where I live) snapping photos of the neighborhood’s colonial era architecture. He also took some cool photos of another Japanese building in Singye-dong that was apparently used as a residence for Japanese railroad workers.

I’d been looking for material like this forever. Thanks!

Now, blogging is all about showing off, so on the off-chance that the blogger checks his trackbacks, here are my posts of Korea’s colonial architecture:

Somebody should walk around snapping pictures of the Yongsan main post, where colonial era buildings abound. We even have some with the imperial japanese army star showing.
