Korea 2014 (Day 2 of 6)
Thursday, April 16, 201531 October 2014
Korea House (Chungmuro Station) - website
Chanced upon this attraction while we were lost when on our way to Namsangol Hanok Village.
Namsan Tower is everywhere...
Yes to a wefie anytime :)
Holly's Coffee (Chungmuro Station)
Chanced upon this cafe chain on our way to the right hanok village.
Pretty dessert breakfast.
Namsangol Hanok Village (Chungmuro Station) - website
We are finally here! So many people and tour buses in the morning.
Namsangol Hanok Village is different from the popular Bukchon Hanok Village such that it allows you to enter the traditional houses to have a look. Bukchon is great for the view but there are residents living there and you can't enter those houses.
Autumn is such a great season.
Sipping coffee while exploring the village.
Trying out some Bollywood in Korea.
So thankful the drizzle stopped within minutes because we were all unequipped.
I think these big jars were used to store rice wine or kimchi.
Another beautiful scenery while on our way out.
I think I'm doing the "I Love Korea" pose.
Like a palace, and there's a carousel!
Had jajangmyeon (black bean sauce noodle) and jjambbong (spicy seafood noodle soup) at Shanghai Restaurant, located inside Lotte World. It serves many other food as well.
And then we went outdoors, where it also looked a little gloomy!
Beautiful trees by the river.
And that calls for a wefie.
Didn't really play any rides though, especially when it started to rain a little.
I just had to pick up the orange phone to help Mr Zebra with his SOS call.
Bye and never see you again. Heard that Everland is more fun and less kiddish.
COEX Aquarium (Samseong Station) - website
Walked a long way to see the fishes but totally regretted going there because I didn't know there would be entrance fees. No, I'm not going to pay to see fishes.
Cafe Droptop (COEX Mall) - website
Stopped by a short rest after all the walking.
Mango Icetop. Quite nice!
Myeongdong
Spotted SJ advertisements at the subway station.
Colourful ice-cream macarons, which tasted nothing fanciful and it's also quite messy to eat without a spoon.
Yoogane (Myeongdong)
Tried the authentic Yoogane chicken galbi in Korea and it's so awesome.
It comes in a huge pan and the service crew will fry the chicken for you. No work needed except to scoop the food into your mouth.
Adding our favourite ramyun!
And the feast begins!
