Museum, Palace and Pigging Out Session....


We dropped by the National Folklore Museum that morning. It showcases the lifestyle of the Koreans from prehistoric age to the Joseon Dynasty. It was a short cultural journey for me.

Interesting & educational. =)

Running lights...

Later, we made a move to Gyeongbokgung Palace. A beautiful place to visit but I got to know from Mamma Mia that it looks like Tian An Men in China. I admired the architecture of the buildings and enjoyed snapping photos away there….







Taking a rest....

Have you seen such big pad lock?


Note that I am not showing off my *ss :)


Cute lil, chubby girl

Too cute to resist for a photo!


The interior

Can you see the golden dragon on the ceiling?

By the pillars

Buffet lunch

Gigantic crystal pear!

Along the way after the palace visit, we saw this. It is not riot, but Yon Sei's Uni students - after exams
We dropped by Sichuon Fashion Street for a walk after spending about 40 minutes at the palace. To look -see and perhaps a quick shopping. I didn’t buy anything as we needed to shift 4 times (stayed in 4 different hotels throughout the whole trip).



However, I enjoyed myself pigging out on that street. We shared a stick of Korean BBQ chicken at the stall. To my utter surprise, Korean food stalls actually provide free flow of soft drinks! (We will never get that in Malaysia)


Look at my greedy face!

Enjoying the bottomless free Pepsi with Sam


Vitamins drinks?
Being greedy and adventurous, all of us shared a bowl of ice cream. It was more like gelato with waffle.





What's next? We'll see......
