Garosu-gil
가로수길
A fashionable tree-lined street in Sinsa-dong, Gangnam, planted with ginkgo trees and lined with brand flagship stores, an Apple Store and cafés. It's easy to combine with Apgujeong and Cheongdam.
Garosu-gil is a street about 700 meters long in Gangnam-gu, lined with ginkgo trees. Along the street and in the back alleys are flagship stores for fashion and beauty brands, an Apple Store, cafés and brunch spots. Autumn, when the ginkgo leaves turn yellow, is the best time for a stroll and photos. Many people continue on to Apgujeong Rodeo Street, the luxury shopping street in Cheongdam-dong and the area around K-pop agencies. The street has lost some popularity to Seongsu-dong in recent years and has some vacant storefronts, but it remains the representative shopping district of Gangnam. Exit 8 of Sinsa Station (Subway Line 3) is about a 5-minute walk away.
