Summer 15' Seoul Trip (Part II)

Haneul Park / Sky Park
It was a mountain garbage, and now it is a green hill with 22 lookout point offering breathtaking views of Seoul City. 5 wind-powered generators provide power to the park and the park's main office.

When I visited to this park, I only saw local people with no other tourist except my friend and myself.
Maybe this is because when the time I visited was Summer, no tourist is gonna attracted to this place.

Anyhow, there are many people come here to have a walk and also jogging.

To arrive to Haneul Park, first you need to arrive in either Mapo-gu Office Station or World Cup Stadium in Seoul. As we stayed in Mapo-gu Office Station, my friend and I woke up in the early morning at 7.00am, about 8.00 am we start our journey towards Haneul Park. We depart by our foot.

I am not remember how long it totally had taken me to Haneul Park. I just remembered I need to walk a lots a lots... I have to passed through a bridge, I have to walk up the many many many staircases, then go through a park like places then hike up a little bit, then only can see the Beautiful Haneul Park, haha... It is really a Sky Park (the name is not wrong at all).

Here we go from the many many staircases


The view from top of the hill, after we went through the staircases

World Cup Stadium

This is somewhere like a park before we arrived to Haneul Park


Finally, we arrived!

We did not go through there, this view was just at my left hand side. 
Snap one, as I feel it is beautiful.

This is the way I went through

I walk until I saw this in my left hand side

This is the end of the road just now

Continue to another path,and I saw this.
I love flower, just can't avoid myself to snap one of this photo.
Dandelion (蒲公英)


walk along this way until the end


Love lock is everywhere~


Along the way we back...













This was what I saw during Summer.
You will be able to see different scene during Autumn, I guess it will be much more beautiful. :)

In conclusion, Haneul Park is a nice place to walk and jog if you aimed for somewhere quiet and nice view.

Summer 15' Seoul Trip

This is the first time I'm writing about my travel.

Yes, I love to travel. Normally I will just post my photo to Facebook.

After I have posted so many photos in Facebook, I noticed that If someone never been to the place you have visited, they will not know and imagine how actually the situation and you really can't feel the actual environment there. This is because you will not write so much and you won't be able to write the details in the Facebook album.

p/s: (It is true that with only the photo most likely you won't be able to feel it, but with detail description, I guess it can solve the problem of the feeling that may go to you :D)

Hence, since I have moved my blog again from WordPress back to Blogger. I did do some "Renovation" in my blog (with music broadcasting and new template in placed), I do believe you will have new feeling towards my blog (If you ever follow my blog before I moved it to here). haha.... I decided to write something on my trip to Seoul in this Summer 15.

Undoubtedly, I visited quite a number of places in Seoul.
In this blog, I will only write about the places/food which I think I like it and something I think people might want to know about.

As an introduction to my trip, this trip is actually not under my plan in this year. Its abruptly came up due to my friend said she want to go to Infinite Concert held on 8th Aug and 9th Aug. Since I never been to Seoul such an advance in technology place, I decided to pay off for this trip to open my eyesight. Here with some info on the trip expenses:
Total 7 Days (6th Aug - 12nd Aug)
Air Asia Flight for round trip : RM 1416 (Included Luggage + 2 set meals) per pax
Accommodation : Airbnb - WorldcupTel, RM 682 for two pax
Transportation (T-Money) : RM 140 per pax
Food : RM 700 per pax
Entrance fee : RM 100 per pax
Wifi Egg: RM 105 (2 people share)


The total expenses without shopping : RM 2749.50
Is it expensive? Yes, definitely! All caused by Malaysia currency drop!

The conversion rate I used to calculate for KWON is 3.5 (1000 won = RM 3.5)

Let's start my "photo travel" now:

Noryangjin Fisheries Market, nothing special to visit here, but I just wanted to taste the GOOD food... haha.. Sashimi here is really taste excellence!! If you like sashimi, you must come here to taste it! In short, at Noryanjin, you pick your kill, and then pick a restaurant to have them killed.


This is where we passed by, so so many live abalone in the tank!!!! We didn't buy or even ask for the price, as the price shall be very expensive!

We purchased the Fish, prawn and xxx (I do not know what it is called) from this stall.
The fish is still alive, it is in the tank sleeping (I say it sleeping because the fish is not swim like the normal fish we see in the meantime, it is really look like sleeping there...haha!!)


Now, we go to the restaurant located in second floor!

Yes, this is the restaurant!! Let's go!

Super Fresh Sashimi!!! Very Yummy! The taste is excellence! It won't smell like disgusting stinky fishy that sometimes we might taste it in local Japanese restaurant. This is the BEST sashimi I ever had!


Honestly, it looks nice, but it is just not for me. My friend said it very good taste!

The prawn supposed to be very nice taste. Unfortunately, I guess it was over cook! The taste just not good enough, but I can really feel the sweetness of the prawn! One thing I'm not so sure why there is redness on the shrimp. When I peeled the shrimp, my fingers all redness, it is something looks like shrimps' egg??

After we had done our lunch, we walk outside to have a look, the photo was shoot from the top at the second floor.

This is our first meal in Seoul, and the MOST expensive meal we had in Seoul. Cost 60,000 won, about RM 210 for two people.

It is time to stop writing for now. Let's continue later. :)
