Go chestnut crazy this autumn at these 9 cafes/bakeries in Seoul’s Mangwon area

Chestnut Desserts

Have you heard of Mangwon?

If you have not, now’s a good time to visit if you’re heading to Seoul for the autumn leaves.

The cafes/bakeries I’m about to introduce to you are all within walking distance from Mangwon Station.

FYI, Mangwon Station (Line 6) is just two stops away from the popular Hongdae area (Hongik University Station, Line 2) so it’s easy to swing by after you’re done with all your shopping.

Oh yes, and of course, autumn’s the season for all things chestnuts so thank me later after you’re done tasting all the chestnut-themed desserts! 😉
