More of Korea

There are many pictures taken in Korea and all the pictures are messed up and I do not have the time to sort it out.. Haha.. too busy planning other stuffs and also watching series (when I can). But at least I get to share the places I went in Korea.

Landscape in the town where the use-to-be government officials stayed during the reign of the emperor period

Red Leaf in Changdugong Palace. Pictures below are all Changdugong palace.









The entrance of Changdugong palace


Changdugong palace is big. We took at least an hour to walk all over the place, and yet we did not cover every single part of the palace. There are beautiful landscapes all over the palace. The palace is well preserved. No wonder it is one of a tourist attraction. We took many posings in the palace... Hihi..


Honestly, I just love Korea. If you ask me if I want to work and stay there... Haha.. I would love to. It is a very nice place. Seoul itself is nice.. and what more, I love the food. I can never get bored of it. I love the weather too.

Korea Part 2 : Jeju Island + Nami Island + Daegu

We travelled the whole Korea... covering as much as possible.. The photos might not be in sequence but at least I can share what I experienced in Korea. We travelled from Seoul to Jeju, then to Boosan, Daegu, Muju then back to Seoul. I love the itinerary cause it covers every important aspects of Korea.

The cultural village is a nice place. It tells you the culture of Koreans and how they evolve. Actually, this village is also the place where a drama series was shot but I cannot remember the title... (I think I will post the pic in the next post)... This village is very informative. Reminds me of the cultural village in Kuching, Sarawak. However, this village is beautifully displayed with many gardens of flowers... You will realise that there are many pictures of us posing with flower background. Haha..

Jeju Island

Nami Island. This island is where Winter Sonata was shot

I cannot remember exactly where this is but this is where the officials and servants of the palace lived. This place also house the shrines for all the emperors.

Us.. wearing the Korea traditional attire
The Korea trip we had was quite fun as the tour guides were quite informative. It is a mandarin tour. This trip really tested my mandarin level, and I have to say that I can only understand one quarter of the entire trip. Haha.. KY had to explain to me and I actually became frustrated as KY only told me in a sentence, wrapping up many sentences of the guides explanation.
Overall, the trip is worth it. I get to taste many Korean food and also taste all sorts of quality. Haha... I know, they say that if you are in a tour, you don't get to taste the real Korean food but I have to say, the arrangement is good. Anyone who wants to know more about my trip and also which tour agency I go to, do drop me a message.
