Due to its unique location and historical background, this area has preserved a large number of traditional Korean-style buildings, also known as "hanoks". These houses are characterized by low roofs, round beams, and double eaves, and although they differ from the complete traditional hanok, it is this "old method of evolution" and "decorative tendency" that makes Bukchon Hanok unique.
