The outdoor mall in downtown Ulsan
In "old" downtown Ulsan, there's a pretty cool outdoor shopping area.
When I first moved here, it was an area of maybe four blocks or so of streets that were blocked off to traffic. It was basically an outdoor mall (complete with a multiplex cinema of course :) ). In the past couple of months, they have built a rood over the entire area. It's quite attractive and fun to look around in. Many other cities in Korea and Japan have something similar. Here's a few pictures. If you look around my site long enough, you'll see pictures of the same area in different phases of it's construction.

One of the "enterences". That little blue shop that says DVD in the centre is where I can find all of my X-Box needs.

This is the outside of that awesome Indian resturant that I like to eat at sometimes. I've written about it before.

You can see a flock of sheep (I mean people) in the distance. This part of the "mall" is empty, as it is the nightclub/bar area.

"Baaa, baaa, blacksheep..." Heh, heh, heh.

Just a couple of months ago, there was no roof!
