Seoul’s Jung-Gu district: Literally the “central district”

Located in the heart of Seoul on the north side of the Han River, Jung-gu literally means “central district” in Korean. In fact, it is the historical center of the city and contains a number of historical and cultural sites such as the Myeongdong Cathedral, the National Theater of Korea, the Seoul Museum of Art and the Bank of Korea Museum along with well known Seoul landmarks such as the N Seoul Tower and a number of department stores, shopping centers and entertainment venues. In addition, several member companies of the Hanjin conglomerate have their offices in the area along with international airlines such as Air China, Hainan Airlines and Air France.

For business travelers and expatriates looking for either short (minimum of one night) or long-term accommodations, the Han Suites Serviced Residences is located at the foot of Mt. Nam San with spectacular views of the city and offers 120 fully furnished and equipped studio, one and two bedroom suites. In addition, for business travelers and expatriates who will be needing office space, the Executive Centre Seoul Finance centre offers 60 offices and 215 workstations along with fully equipped conference facilities that can cater to meetings and seminars for up to 60 people. Moreover, the location offers easy access to all parts of the city via the City Hall Station just a two-minute walk away.

Hence, for business travelers and expatriates coming to Seoul who literally want to live and work in a “central district,” look no further than Jung-Gu.
