Herb and Gwang Jung Markets

On Sunday we went to the large herb market where you can get diagnosed and given a herbal prescription depending on your symptoms. Some of the "remedies" we saw were pretty predictable: ginseng, chammomile, licorice bark, dried mushrooms, lots of dried barks and random seeds. The not so predictable list included: large in-tact deer antlers, dried caterpillers, raw chickens feet, impressively large sheets of dried seaweed, and cartoon-like pig heads.
