South Korea 2013: Day 4 - N Seoul Tower and Myeongdong

September 5, 2013

Annyeong Haseyo Chinggus!

This is our last day in Seoul, so sad that we don't have enough time. Anyways, I'm pretty much sure that I'll be back here :)

Our itinerary for the day: Visit N Seoul Tower for the Love Locks, Myeongdong for cosmetics shopping and Express Bus Terminal Underground Mall for our last minute shopping.



For the THIRD time, I'm here again at N SEOUL TOWER!

Looks like every time I visit Seoul, N Seoul Tower is always on my list. It's nearby to Namsan Guesthouse 3, you just have to walk to reach the cable car that would bring you to the tower.

The cable car opens at 10 'o clock in the morning

Ticket to cable car: 8000 KRW (round trip)

The weather is so good to enjoy the beauty of Seoul from N Tower! 

Seoul is L-O-V-E! <3 <3 <3

N Seoul Tower is one of the popular tourist spots in South Korea and very popular filming location from Korean Dramas as well as Variety Shows.

 If you failed to register for free Hanbok wearing experience at M Plaza, Myeongdong, here at N Seoul Tower you can also enjoy for 10 minutes free hanbok wearing experience. ^^ 

We did not go to the N Seoul Tower Observatory and Teddy Bear Museum because I've been there twice.

Myeongdong is LOVE! And will always be LOVE for me. All Korean Beauty Products are here, where the biggest Nature Republic is located. If you are looking for Etude House, no need to worry because it's not only 1 there are more store of it. Same goes with Tony Moly, Holika Holika,  Skin Food, The Face Shop, Saem, Missha, Innisfree, Laneige, etc.

Another reason that Myeondong is LOVE, is satisfying my fangirling experience! SPAO is located here! SPAO clothing endorsed by Super Junior. K Story owned by Heechul (Super Junior) sister - a coffee shop and music store, where I can see lots of Super Junior stuffs. WHY Style owned by Yesung's family and TwoSome Coffee Shop by Siwon are also located in Myeongdong area.

For our last food trip in Seoul, we tried their BIBIMBAP!

At the Airport:

While checking in for our flight, we heard some screaming girls and we've seen from afar four guys walking to immigration/check-in area, and to our surprise it's none other than CN BLUE! If I can only leave my baggage and have a close look of Yonghwa :) Anyways, I've seen him even from a quite distance ^^ and he's cute with milky white skin that very noticeable! 

Till next time Land of the Morning Calm! ^_^

JJIMJILBANG

We head back to our guesthouse to warm ourselves first and I ask the staff for the nearest SAUNA or JJIMJILBANG in Myeongdong, the staff suggested the one located in Good Morning City Mall located in Dongdaemun and History station.

The jjimjilbang cost 400won, we just rest here for an hour, take some pictures and just explore this place, which is a very nice and clean place. 

The Good Morning City mall is open until 4am, for your shopping spree try to visit this mall, a lot of clothes here and when you get tired visit the basement for the jjimjilbang! ^^
