On our way back to the hotel we wandered across a closed market for clothes. Instead of taking all the clothes back inside at the end of the day, they just wrap them in plastic covers and call it a day.

Our final full day of the trip started out with a cup of coffee and a sandwich. After this breakfast we took the subway to the World Cup Stadium.

From this park it's possible to visit other parks in the neighborhood, they are all connected. This other park is a former water treatment facility called "Seonyudo Park".
