Seomun Market, South Korea

This market was ample in size. It's exactly the type of market you are envisioning: squawking, caged chickens flapping about, anything you could imagine under the sea, nameless roots and leaves piled high on old newspapers with 70+ year-old women squatting among the leaves. Fabric stores, fake-designer duds, "authentic" Korean antiques.... Seomun Market was a poppin' place.
I'm glad I got to try the world's best donuts. Mmm..

 Fresh seafood of all shapes and sizes


 Spice up your life

In the center of this market you find one crossing with 2 bigger stands where animals are sold in cages, most of them not able to move. Cats and dogs too. The kiddies liked the animals. Sorry I didn't have the courage to photograph the chickens, dead and/or alive.


Fake flower paradise


They can't stop eating the intestines; I can't say I partook.
