Korea Tour part 4

Day 5

finally, we don't have to eat korean breakfast. Haha.

served with buffet from hotel.
























Started the day with Seoraksan National Park. Too bad the weather wasn't good.





































there was also several temple within the park.
























Lunch - Pork steamboat again. this time round with squids.

























Lucky the toufu soup was superb! =p
most of us had two bowl of it. haha


























Then, we make out way to Yongpyong Resort. This is also one of the filming scene of Winter Sonata.









































these are some of the views from our room! never had such a nice view from hotel before!!
(^.^)











































Weather was still not good. Should be around 10 degree celsius.
took the cable car up the mountains to view the scenery. there wasn't any snow at all, so of cos, no skiing.
And, we are required to pay an additional $12000 won for the ride.










































I guess it was Spring time, thus the whole place is so empty. We even had to close the door of the cable car on our own as there wasn't much staff around to help or guide us. Lol.

Even when we reached the top, it was still pretty empty. most shops are not even opened for business. Thus, nothing for us to do or see.

Too misty~
























And, lots of photos from Winter Sonata..










































Had some hot chocolate in the only cafe that is opened.
And, managed to get some warmth with the fireplace.









































since there wasn't much for us to do, we decided to challenge ourselves to take photo with the posters out in the cold and windy area. Hahaha

























you know how cold and windy it is from the way we stand. Lol























the cable car that was filmed during the show. they had removed it from the tracks and up for display now.
























back to our resort, we went around to explore the restaurant that is being kept after the filming of Winter Sonata.
















































































the piano is left untouched for several years, it is seriously out of tune. haha

























Still early for dinner, so we treat ourselves to the delicious looking cakes from the cafe in our hotel.










































Again, there was nothing much for us to do or explore as there was only some shops around the area.

finally, it's dinner time!

But, no surprises, it's pork steamboat again.
We ended up eating more mushrooms than the main ingredient, pork. Lol
