Cafe Pokpo: The Waterfall Cafe in Seoul

Cafe Pokpo: The Waterfall Cafe in Seoul

December 17, 2023
Cafe Pokpo is located in the northwestern end of Seoul, just outside walking distance from Hongdae Station. It's famous for being the only cafe with a view of a waterfall in Seoul, but it's barely just. It's about 15 minutes by bus from the nearest subway station and much longer by foot. But while getting there may be a bit of a hassle, it's worth getting away from the busy city center to enjoy a bit of nature.
