Seoul Day 4 Gyeongbokgung/Samcheongdong/Bukchon Hanok Village/N Seoul Tower

Finally we see sunshine. And it was a good time to visit Gyeongbokgung and the nearby Samcheongdong and Bukchon Hanok Village. It is the right season to visit as the places are very beautiful in autumn.

Before getting to the goong, just out of the train gantry,
let's take an interesting picture

Look at Korea's blue sky



Goong amongst modernisation

Beautiful roof
Time to jump!!!
That's the door we, women servants should take in the olden days
 
On the roof, the protectors of the goong

Supposed to be the beautiful garden of the queen of the goong
That's our young student guide who is learning to speak english

 
Before leaving, we managed to catch the guard changing ceremony
After asking direction on where is Samcheongdong, we headed towards it. We reached after about 20mins slow walk...
First sight of Samcheongdong
Have some squid before moving on

Interesting buildings of Samcheongdong

Just in next street from Samcheongdong is Bukchon Hanok Village.. let's take a slow walk over..




What happened to Yong?!?



That's our dinner at the street after Samcheongdong

After dinner, we took a slow walk towards the train station, Anguk.

Last stop for the day, N Seoul  Tower. We alighted at Chungmuro station. From the train station, walk to the bus stop in far front of Daehan Cinema. Bus numbers 02, 05 (1,100 won with card) can take us to the tower in 15 mins.


XT's bear got entangled among the locks?!?





 
After the tower, we take bus back to Myeongdong. Have some ice cream before getting back to the hotel.
