Honeymoon Trip to Korea: Day 7 & 8

Posted in Travel tagged , , , at 3:05 pm by reffine

On the last two days in Korea, we spent mostly around Seoul city area.. as mentioned earlier due to the Spring session had not reached Seoul, we already omitted the places we wanted to visit for the cherry blossoms experience..

02 April:

We went to a nearby Korean food restaurant for breakfast.. the food there just so-so only.. but as usual, coz the portion quite big I also couldn’t finish it hehe..

Our breakfast for the day

That's our hotel, just behind me :)

We went for a stroll around Seoul today.. our initial plan was totally out, we’re a bit lazy to go to Suwon Fortress as the place is out of town and the journey takes quite a while.. Thinking to go to Nami island.. but apparently our timing wouldn’t be able to make it, some more we’re quite late to go already as need to take the ferry to Nami island.. to be honest, actually we got lost on the way to Nami haha as I wrongly read the subway map and our improper timing plan..

So here ended up we strolled around the city.. visited the Gwanghwamun and went for shopping again to Insa-dong to buy the souvenirs for friends and relatives which we haven’t bought on the earlier day..

Insa-dong Ssamziegil Market

We found a stall in Insa-dong that selling a uniquely formed cakes.. Can you guess what’s the form of the cake? haha.. see below pic ;)

Around the evening time, we went to Myeong-dong again as the place is walkable from Insa-dong market.. Along the way, we bought some snacks on the street stall..

We took our dinner in one of the street stall along the way and went back to our hotel.

03 April:

This day was our last day in our Honeymoon Trip to Korea.. after we checked out from the hotel, we brought our luggages and stroll along to find the Airport bus terminal.. they provided the check-in service on-site also, so we didn’t need to bring our luggages along to the bus..

After bought the bus ticket and we went straight-away to check-in our luggages at the terminal, we went to have our lunch there.. and just in time after we finished lunch, we hurriedly boarded to the bus which took us to Seoul Incheon Airport.

Prepared to board the Airport Bus :)

At the airport, after checked-in our luggages we walked around and found there was a performance of some Korean tradition by the Korean women.. they also taught the attendee on how to draw the Korean art.. too bad we didn’t have much time to join.. so we only went to see around and proceed to our boarding gate..

Finally it’s time to say good bye Korea.. hope we will come to visit again someday.. :D

Conclusion:

Overall it was an enjoyable Honeymoon trip with my lovely hubby… even though we had some disagreements sometimes, finally we can make it up again and enjoy our whole Korea Trip.. I realized that we both was an adventurer type who prefer scenic places and nature sightseeing compare to stroll around the city..

For this trip, what we love the most was the trip in Jeju island.. The scenery was simply awesome! :)

      that “uniquely form cake” tastes not bad.. it’s stuffed with red-bean inside and a bit crispy on the outer skin hehe :)
