[KR] Seoul Again - Day 3

Starting our day right with a hearty meal at a Chinese restaurant near our airbnb! Portion are huge, we shared among 5 people and we barely finished it.

The shop where we had our Chinese food.

First itinerary for the day is Namsan Tower.

*Namsan Tower: 105, Namsangongwon-gil, Yongsan-gu, Seoul

Love the stroll from the bus stop till the tower. The scenery is amazing!

It was a pity that during our visit, there happen to be some water leakage where we were not allowed to go up to the place where the locks are placed. So we couldn't enjoy the full view of Seoul.
I watched alot of dramas where the leads would always order "Ice Americano" and decided to try for myself in Korea. Only then i realised it was just black coffee!



Next up was Namsangol Hanok Village where we get to try hanbok for a fee of 5000 won! There is a lady there who would help you with your outfit and photo taking with no additional fee.

*Namsangol Hanok: 04626  28, Toegye-ro 34-gil, Jung-gu, Seoul

We went there for the hanbok experience since we were around the corner. The village was pretty much boring imo!

Wanted to visit Gyeongbokgung palace but we were too late! Do check on the admission time to avoid disappointments! So we settled for Tosokchon Samgyetang! One black and white chicken  and a kimchi pancake (not in picture) to share. Despite the raves, i really dislike how it tasted? Feels like those chinese medicine taste to me. My mum commented they had the best Kimchi in all the places we visited though!

*Tosokchon Samgyetang: 5, Jahamun-ro 5-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul

Dessert at O´sulloc Tea House before walking around Ssamziegil! We bought the green-tea spread home too. Unfortunately, i felt that it was overly sweet though. Can't deny that it's good but i felt really ger-lat after afew bites.

*O´sulloc Tea House: 170 Gwanhun-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul, South Korea

Our last itinerary for the day was the Cheonggyecheon Stream. During our visit, they had a lantern festival event where the different kinds of lantern fills up the certain part of the stream. It felt like a Chingay parade but on the stream! The area was really crowded with many others strolling too.
