South Korea Again - Day 3

Annyeong Haseyo!!!

Another cold day here in Korea, we still manage to wake up early, as we want to accomplish many places today!

breakfast "spicy noodles"

GYEONGBUKGONG PALACE

I wanted to visit this palace because of the drama Rooftop Prince! I really love that drama starring Micky Yoochun of JYJ and Han Ji Min, this place was feature during their Joseon Dynasty part in the drama.

But before we enter the palace, we watched the marching ceremony or changing of guards in front of palace.

Cool outfits that can be seen on some sageuk drama, I just love the colorful outfit with their accessories/armors. 

After the changing of guards we entered the palace, 3000won for the entrance fee.

Another Korean Drama that was filmed here is JEWEL IN THE PALACE, but the area was under renovation, it's the kitchen area of the palace.

Still exploring the place until I found what I'm looking for, the pond where Bak Ha drowned :) Well another part of the Korean Drama "ROOFTOP PRINCE", I'm so happy to see the place, but again they are doing some constructions on this place. I love the view here, I'm reminiscing the drama too, sad part of the drama :(

feeling Koreana ^^

More pics of the palace.

We exit on the left side of the palace and seen The Blue House.

I just love these trees, the changing of leaves ... lovely!

We kinda lost our way going to the subway, so we ended up again infront of Gyeongbokgung Palace and watched the changing of guards (again), this time we took photos with the guards! Woah these guards were amazing, like they don't move at all, and I noticed that they were kinda tall and they also wearing a make up (BB Cream!!! kekekeke)

BUKCHON HANOK VILLAGE/ SANGGOJAE

Our next destination is Sanggojae which is located in Bukchon Hanok Village, from Gyeongbukgong Station we ride the subway going to Anguk Station, though it's not my first time here, but just to make sure I did asked some Koreans along the way if we are on the right way , well they were very helpful and kind as always (I really love Koreans). On the front of the village, tourist information staff/crew can be found, they understand English well, so I still asked the way to Sanggojae, again just to make sure that we won't get lost , we don't want to waste time ^^

Reaching the place,  it still makes me giggles that my LEE MIN HO had been to this place, sit on the same place we've sit, stand on the same place we've stand in, walk to same place that we also walked in! Crazy huh???, yeah right! So crazy over LEE MIN HO <3

Enough of these craziness! ^^ Move!! move ^_^

Some pics of Buckhon Hanok Village

We didn't explore much here in the village, basically you'll be seeing the same place or same style of the house/structure. But it doesn't mean I don't like the place, I actually want to experience living in hanok 'coz I love the structure of it, hoping that someday I can own one ^_^

So what's next??? We head back to Myeongdong (at our place) and we had our lunch first before going to Namsan Tower or N Seoul Tower.

N SEOUL TOWER

This place is just near to Namsan Guesthouse 3, we just walked for about 10 minutes and reach the Namsan Cable car, we queued for the tickets and paid 8000won (roundtrip).

Must visit place for Korean Drama addicts! Boys Over Flower, Rooftop Prince, My Lovely Kim Sam Soon, Protect The Boss, Can't Lose, My Girl, Iris, Beautiful Days, etc was filmed here. See how famous is this place, a really tourist spot! You'll see a lot of tourist here and locals as well.

Riding the cable car, of course would remind you a lot of Korean Dramas too ^^ 

Beautiful Seoul

It was a short ride in a cable car, nothing beats Ngong Ping Cable Car in Hong Kong! ^^

Teddy Bear Museum

Observatory Tower + Teddy Bear Museum Ticket for 14,000won

To view the beauty of SEOUL, make sure you go here at the observatory tower. You can also buy here some souvenirs, love a letter to your special someone at N Love Letter, look for your country and see how many miles away are you from Seoul ^^
