I like buying Indian style incense whether we're talking about incense sticks or the other forms of incense. Any ideas?


Thanks...

There's a table usually set up during daylight hours behind the park in Hongdae that sells Nag Champa, my favorite. He has a cool selection of burners and a decent selction of imported 'scence.

Across from the main gate at Hongdae, veer right up the hill to the right of the park about 30 feet and he's on the left...just a small table, but some good stuff.

I dunno about Indian style, but you can usually get some good stuff at the gift shops near temples. Some of them have a really wide selection

There's usually a table of incense on the street in Insadong.

There was a shop in Insadong selling an Indian brand of incense on the street, but I think they sold out and didn't re-stock.

I have bought some good incense in Gangnam. A lady has a street stall set up and she sells sticks and cones. Not cheap like China, Thailand or Vietnam but good quality. Can't pinpoint the exact location for you but it is close to the subway station. Just follow your nose!
