Seoul - Located in a sleepy village on the outskirts of Seoul, the Dreamy Camera Cafe allows its customers to crawl inside a giant camera and take a look through the other side of the lens.

Built by a former pilot and camera collector, the cafe towers over the owner’s nearby house.

Inside there are two floors of cosy coffee consumption with decor that is dominated by vintage cameras, ranging from miniature toys to real antique contraptions. Each floor has a large bay window that, from the exterior, make up the dual lens’ of the Rolleiflex camera the building is modelled after.

The decor inside is equally ecstatic about photography with film negatives sitting on each coffee table, and even toilet paper that is made to look like a film reel.

While the first floor of the cafe is devoted to a sort of camera museum, the second houses a gallery of photography, and patrons are welcome to try to submit their own work.

Whether they are fans of cameras, coffee, or just stunning views, Dreamy Camera Cafe visitors are well taken care of. The singular coffee has to be one of the most picturesque structures in the world. – Slate
