S609 - Seoul, Korea

salam

Travelling to Korea was never in my travel list before. But Autumn really make me fall in love with Korea.  

When everyone asked me, "How is Korea? Best tak?", i will quickly say "I love Korea because it is Autumn".

We arrived at Incheon International Airport around 6 am, queue for almost 45 minutes for immigration and get T-Money from 7eleven. Since we plan to travel around the city using subway, T-Money is a must have items.

Our first visit is to Hanbok Village; a traditional village in the city for tourist. We can also try their tradiotional clothes and i have few pictures wearing them and of course you need to pay a bit.





Then, we went to Myeondong for a famous cat cafe. And im so surprise to find lotsss of cute cats walking and playing in this cafe. Visitors need to pay for the entrance fee and will get a free drink. They dont serve food for human in this cafe, just food for cats.

We decided to get some rest before continue exploring Seoul. This is our way back to hostel, passing through yellow leaves trees.


We went to Seoul Tower during the night, but i don't have any good photo of Seoul Tower to share here; i'm not good in taking photo during night. Dongdaemun Market is the right place to get souvenir for family and friends. It is a night market selling local foods, souvenirs. All the local foods look so tempting.


During our last day in Seoul, we decided to ride on the city tour bus. Because im a bit malas to do some google-ing thingy and connecting the dots of interesting places in the city. Hihi. The bus tour have few route, and we decided to chose the city tour. 

However, luck is not on our side, the weather that day is not so good and there are Seoul-run event on that day. So they close some of the effected routes and all the interesting places close at 6pm! We only manage to get to Gyeongbok Palace; which is the first stop. And then war museum; which is the second stop. We stop at Itaewon for lunch because there are few of halal-restaurant in Itaewon and even a mosque. 





Till then.

Thank you.
