Seoul Tower (Part 1)

Update on **10 June 2014**

We kicked up the new day by exploring Seoul Tower. It's mandatory to visit Seoul Tower since it's the landmark of Seoul. Not visited Seoul Tower seemed like visiting China without seeing great walls of China. Since it's near to our guesthouse, we walked by foot and reached there within 15 minutes.

 We headed to Namshan cable car station

 Entrance

Less crowd at there

The cable car was spacious in order to accommodate more visitors.

Wowww, beautiful, nice, wonderful view !!!

and this one too

So many love locks in there. However, I was not interested in putting love lock to mark my love for someone.

If you're the fans of K drama, My Love From The Star definitely recognized this place. There were lots of tourists fighted with each others in order to shoot photo at that chair.

Sadly, the love locks being cleared few minutes ago

 

Can't resist ourselves in taking photo in the love locks scene

 

Cutee post. Thankful to the older age couple tourists from China helped us shoot photo

Kuala Lumpur was very far away from Seoul based on above description

Everland, Seoul

Update on **9 June 2014**

We went to Everland, Seoul in the early morning. Everland was the well-known amusement park in Seoul. I'm not the person that liked to visit amusement or theme park. I was afraid in playing roller coaster, pirate ships and other huge amusement park rides. Anyway, I had to consider the wants of other travel companion too because tolerance will avoid conflicts.

Let the pictures below explained my Everland visit.

 We waited in front of WHOAU for the bus no 5002

Here it's to Everland

 Loved the Korean bus services that came with clear signboards and even the bus officer in duty guided the bus traffic   

 After 1 hour, we reached the front bus stop of Everland and then boarded the free shuttle bus to Everland theme park

 Everland, I was coming...

 

As the tourist, we got the discounted prices based on the discounted coupons obtained from magazine of Korea Tourism Organization. However, at the ticket counter, we needed to show our passport as the evidence too.

Everland had 5 sections: 1) American adventure, 2) Magic land, 3) European adventure, 4) Zoo tapia, 5) Global fair (I failed to capture whole sections)

Global Fair

There were lots of castles from Frances, Middle East, Indian, Russian and so on.  

 Middle East look like castle

 European countries castle

 Happy, Happy, Happy

Zoo Tapia

Safari World and Lost of Valley could be found there. Safari World has polar bear, Siberian tiger, lions and penguins. Meanwhile, in the Lost of Valley, the visitors can close up look at the animals. 

 

The white polar bear was so cute. If it is tame and not being caged, I wished to hug it. 

 No expect the tiger able to sleep under such hot sun

 Lion ar Lion, you looked so lonely.

 Penguins needed the freedom actually

 Bird show

 It looked very real

 I was not the flower person but sensed that those flowers were pretty

 

The signboard said it was black crowne crane. They perform a special dance that involved head shaking, jumping and wind uttering to attract mate 

 Domestic rabbits

 Red crawned crane

 The main highlight of the Lost of Valley was able to enjoy the Safari journey by using the convert vehicle like above picture. The vehicle will convert into different functions and pattern when moving from land to water

 The good-looking audio guide. When I visited Seoul, I came across lots of good looking Korean guys

 

Dragon sound 

 So pity with this skinny elephant.

 blue colours birds

 Zebra

 Giraffes

 Yes, the head of Giraffe touched our convert vehicles. I even felt its tameness.

 

 Four seasons garden was filled with beautiful flowers

 

 Parade show

 Absolutely agree

Caricature service. I wished to have one but my love and family were not there. 

I was quite satisfied with the facilities being provided in Everland. It was so tourist friendly because clear signbords and directions. The ultimate thing was in English. It brought conveniences for the tourists and enhance their revisit. 

Besides that, the Everland staff were helpful and friendly. Smiles were always on their faces. They were willing to give direction in case the tourists were lost. 

 Moreover, the queue for each themepark were not long. We didn't had to wait for few hours for each attraction. It really saved our precious times. 

Everland was worth visit and highly recommended.
