[KOREA] SEOUL I'M IN LOVE ♡

SEOUL! Finally city view HAHA shopping! I just love city view, skyscrapper, traffic jam, crowds. After 4 hours drive from mt. Seorak and 1 rest area stop, we made it here. Btw, in korea, Rest area is so clean and lovely. There are food court, ofcourse toilet, mini market and even some clawn machine :3 beaucse of fall, everything just looks amazing! Red, yellow, and green leaves, cool wind breeze, sipping hot chocolate ☕ because I arrived here about 12 am, i was having lunch here. There are some choices, RAMYEON 라면 (Korean noodle), UDON 우동 (Japanese big noodle), BIBIMBAB 비빔법(Korean mix rice with vegetable and beef ), and many more. I chose HAEMUL RAMYEON 해믈라면 (seafood ramyeon) ₩5,000 or IDR 60,000. Hot broth, fresh clams and squid so yummy!!! And dont forget eat it with kimchi and raddish. 

Korea is like a coffee addict country. You can easily find coffee shop every corner of the street. And here I drank my most favorite ICE CARAMEL MACHIATO from EDIYA COFFEE priced ₩ 4,500 for medium and ₩ 6,000 for large one. I thing it even tasted better than starbucks' my favvvv <3 check out my previous post about it! here

 

SHOPPING TIME!!

MYEONGDONG, the number 1 must visit place in Seoul. Myeongdong is like pasar baroe in jakarta, huge shopping street that you can find everything here from street food, local brand store, international brand store, and many more. But now I didn't buy anything cause it starts fall/winter collection and nothing can be use in Indonesia since it has different season I preferred myself "snack" HAHA. I bought CHICKEN SATAY ₩ 3,000, i forgot photo but it looked like kebab, huge satay with chicken , leek, and some vegetables in sour sweet sauce yum! and then refresh myself with POMEGRANATE JUICE ₩5,000, quite expensive but totally worth it so fresh, sweet with a lil bitter taste. and at least not last, TTEOKPOKKI W 8,500, korean rice cake and fish cake in sweet spicy jojujang sauce & KIMBAB ₩7,000, korean sushi with tuna inside 

And this is the end my autumn journey. Korea never makes me bored every season has it magical scenery. See on other travel diary!!

[KOREA] WIND BREEZE AT SEORAK MOUNT

Right after nami island, my bus went directly to the eastest side of korea,SOKCHO 속초. Here stand the 3rd highest mountain in korea, SEORAKSAN  설악산 ( 설 seor means snow, 악 ak means stone, 산 means mountain) because in seorak full of stone mountain. Almost all old korean, loves to hike mt. Seorak in autumn, because of lovely weather, beautiful scenery, and not too far distance from seoul ( only about 4 hours drive). After entering the national park, i took cable car to the top of the mountain. Not end here, after reach top cable car station, we have to walk about 5 minutes by walk to the real top. It worth to do! The scenery will pay the price.

For accomodation, in national park also has resort but i stayed in sokcho city, named FOR YOU RESORT. Nice and super big room, it even bigger than my 100m2 apartment :p you also can check hotel or resort price here. For you that prefer hotel not resort, you can choose The Class 300, i've been stayed there and lovely 4 stars hotel.

For food, i suggest you..... SEAFOOD! yess mostly here are fishermans so you can easily eat seafood here with great price. For you that love sashimi, you have to stay in the class 300 hotel because across the hotel there's a fish market that will provide you from the morning till 10 PM fresh seafood. Or here as my dinner, i ate famous GRILLED MACAREL. Price ₩12,000 or IDR 240,000 totally worth it guys.

For souvenir or snack, you have to buy SEAWEED. Freshly made and cheap, in seoul you have to pay ₩10,000 for a box but here just half of it ₩5,000

After took 5 minutes ferry, I landed in a crazy beautiful incredible land with full of colourful-leave-trees. My goddess! Oh ya for you who has big adrenaline you can try reach nami island by using super long flying fox with paying ₩30,000 or IDR 360,000 per pax. I just went straight ahead until i saw beautiful yellow tree line. I felt like never leave this place. My fall journey just began and too perfect to be true!!! And here in nami, is famous with their DALGGALBI 닭갈비 (dalk means chicken, galbi means grilled or bbq) dont forget to try! It priced ₩10,000~12,000 per portion that enough for about 4 persons. Super soft chicken with unique tasted, grilled mushroom, some TTEOKPOKKI 떡볶이 (ricecake) fold in sesame leave or lettuce with rice, garlic, and sauce. YUMMY!!!!! 
