After a long journey of about 7 hours, we safely landed at Incheon International Airport (IIA). It did not manage to have a view of Malaysia & Korea as the plane flew at a level above the seas of clouds. Nevertheless I enjoy great meals & breakfast provided by MAS. Although an attempt to as…

haven't been to travel with my family for long time, and this is my first time in Korea.. was freezing there.... it was -5 degrees almost everyday, but we had a fantistic time in the beautiful city

After a Saturday night out in Seoul, Sunday was a relaxing day where we had lunch in Myeongdong with friends. Riding the bus from Yeouido to Myeongdong took 20 minutes. It was a nice bus ride as we get to cross one of Seoul's numerous Han River bridges and see Seoulites during their usual Sun…

South Korea

Picked up at 10.00 for a drive through the city to see some workrelated places. It has been raining most of the day so the view was a bit sad. Fortunate at night the sky opened up so we could walk a bit for diner. More traditional food: bimibap. But again it was too much of everything. So sad to se…

I am here a stop-over in Seoul, Korea, on my way to the Philippines - I haven't been here for 10 yrs.  The plane was GREAT - Korean Air.  There was so many movies to choose from + games.  The food was good too.  I have to do some running or biking while I'm here bec I don't want…

I've been vegetarian since January 1999 and have traveled through many Asian countries. It was really refreshing to be able to find healthy, tasty, SPICY food in Korea. Most kimichi dishes are made with shrimp or oysters however the summer kimichi often is free of these ingredients. I never knew th…

I arrive in Seoul for one night and explore the streets a bit. I had a wonderful flight travelling over from New Zealand to Korea.  Korean air is good value, service is top notch, the food is very nice - had korean options and they were good.  The Korean hotel was very flash apart …

I was planning on hitting the major attractions of the city but the rain put a stop to that. So I decided to go to the Hyatt Hotel and relax in the hot and cold pools. My friend recommended the Korean scrub. I must say, I was surprised that I had that much dead skin on me! For those who are wil…

This morning, I ventured out into the city alone with an agenda. I first went to the Seodaemun Prison (서대문형무소 역사관). It was originally built by the Japanese to house Korean independence fighters. After the Japanese left Korea in 1945, Korea used it as a national prison until ar…

Due to a 25 hour layover in Seoul, I decided to get out and see the city.  I was entertained on my flight by a group of 20 odd snow boarders on their way to Japan.  Let's just say all the complimentary beer was gone when the plane landed and the 2 guys next to me were cut off mid flight f…
