Day 6 : Seoul Free and Easy
We were given the final day to tour on our own. How great! So, me and 3 other girls decided to have our own Seoul free and easy tour. We planned to go to N Seoul Tower, Bukchon Hanok Village & Gyeongbokgung Palace. After having our breakfast at Lotte Hotel, we kicked off our exploration, around 10am.
N Seoul Tower
Bukchon Hanok Village
I just realised I took so many photos with the doors~
Gyeongbokgung Palace
I’m a fan of the Royal Guards!! XD
I didn’t go inside Gyeongbokgung palace. Just loitering and taking photos outside.
Cheong Wa Dae (The Blue House)
Next, we walked to Cheong Wa Dae (Bluehouse) which is just nearby. Cheong Wa Dae is the executive office and official residence of the President of The Republic of Korea.
We only stopped by and took some photos outside. You’ll need to book in advance for a tour inside.
Star Avenue at Lotte World
Finally, we got back to Lotte Hotel and decided to make a quick stop at the Star Avenue. There’s a ‘gallery’ that you need to pay for the entrance, that we didn’t go in. So we were outside snapping the displays of the ‘Hallyu’ stars like Big Bang, Rain, Hyun Bin, Jang Geun Suk, 2pm, JYJ, Song Seung Heon, Choi Ji Woo & Kim Hyun Joong.
So that concludes my 1st trip to Korea. My next trip was 5 month later, to Korea again… and the main purpose of the trip was to attend Shinhwa Return Concert!!!!
