From Sesame Street-themed cafes to stairway to heaven cafes, Korea is on their A-game when it comes to unique cafe concepts.
Su-san Park Cafe is just the latest addition to the list – this ocean-themed cafe and bakery has gone out their way to make you feel like you’re at the beach.

The price of the sushi is based on the different coloured plates, and it ranges from KRW2,000 (~USD1.61) to KRW10,000 (~USD8.05).
At the cafe, there is also a bakery where you can get your hands on their signature bakes, but do note that they get sold out pretty quickly.
On certain days, the cafe also offers limited edition drinks such as the dolphin fondant cold brew latte (KRW8,500, ~USD6.85).
Check out their Instagram if you don’t want to miss out on the news of these events.

Refresh your tastebuds with the tropical-flavoured blue ocean ade (KRW8,000, ~USD6.44), a drink that has two different coloured layers for maximum vacation cocktail vibes. Don’t worry, it’s alcohol-free.

On your way up to the rooftop of the cafe, you’ll be guided by a flight of insta-worthy pastel-coloured stairs.
At the rooftop, you’ll find the stairway to heaven photo zone, which gives you an unobstructed view of the blue sky. It’s a pretty popular photo zone, so you may have to wait around to get a good shot.

If you’re lucky, the weather may be clear and yield a stunning view of the sunset from the rooftop.

Besides the stairway to heaven zone, there are many other photo zones with trippy illusions that rival the Trickeye Museum.
