Sorry to Double post but im at my computer now and wanted to show off the "rainbow district" or what they call
Gamcheon Culture Village
It started out as "poor persons district" to seperate them from the working areas of the industrial site, but be out of site from the rest of the city. The roads are super narrow usually 1 and a half cars wide and its not uncommon to see homebuilt contraptions (akin to a gator or atv type deal) Originally it was built in the 1920s but over the last 10 years or so the City has put effort into making it a ritzy artisty area, offering a walking tour. and giving shops heavy discounts on taxations and permits. its not uncommon to see a community garden next to a coffee shop or some art gallery. It also hosts a Buddist temple and a medical center ( out patients still have to head into the big city)
But it has what you need to survive and there's a specific bus line to take you from the outter rim of the district to the subway transit system. I found it rather quaint and it was nice walking around the steep paths and seeing children and families out and about. course at the time I had slicked back black hair and I stand at 6 foot 3 and 220 lbs so they musta thought i was russian or something.
