Made a spontaneous decision to travel to KOREA this year.
After doing a one day research on the travel agencies; comparing the itinerary and package, we settled for Genting Holiday. Despite being a small travel agency at Bukit Timah Plaza, the customer service rendered was excellent! And the package was cheaper than other more established travel agencies, think it was around $1.5K++ with all taxes in.
Places of attraction that we visited:
Day 1 was basically the night that we checked in and boarded our flight. That was considered 1 day too!
Day 2
Upon arrival in Incheon, we had few hours to kill before our domestic flight to Jeju.
Our first stop Cheongwadae Sarangchae Exhibition & Museum where we were being introduced to the history of Seoul and the legacy of Korea's former presidents. I didn't pay much attention except for the part where many of their presidents were murdered for their wrongdoings.
Blue House - The presidential residence of Korea |
Our first meal in Korea: Ginseng Chicken Soup |
After our lunch, we boarded the plane again and left for Jeju where we stayed for 2 nights.
Mysterious Road: where unusal phenomenon happens... Bottles rolling up the slope; bus going uphill with its engine off. Haha! But I know the secret behind this mystery! |
Next, we visited Halla-San National Park. If you are not much of a fan for all the flora and fauna, I guess this might be one of the places that you might want to give it a miss. |
Our final stop for the day: Yongduam Rock If you look to the right side of this photo, you will be able to see a dragon head. |
Day 3
Greeted by the cool breeze and fresh air at Sunrise Peak. It took us 20 mins to climb to the mountain peak and our muscles ached for days after the strenuous exercise. |
Next up: Seopjikoji one of the places used as sets for movies and TV dramas more walking required to reach the white lighthouse which was quite a distance away |
We had an interesting session at Folk Village where we learnt about the residential culture of the island. |
Black Pig that performs similar roles to a guard dog. |
Black Boar BBQ (Remember the black pig we saw earlier?) |
Gearing up for our ATV Rides. The outfit is to protect us from all the dirt. |
Windmill Towers located at the park in Jeju Lotte Hotel |
Teddy Bear Museum Galleries of bear span across 2 levels |
Cheonjeyeon Waterfalls : The ponds of Gods There's actually a story behind this waterfall where a mortal fell in love with a beautiful fairy. |
