Beautiful Spring in South Korea - ToSokChon Ginseng Chicken Restaurant (Day 1, 04 Apr 2013)

After watching the royal changing guards ceremony in Gyeongbokgung Palace 景福宫, we headed to ToSokChon Ginseng Chicken Restaurant 土俗村人参鸡 to have our late lunch (around 4 pm =.=).

This authentic Korean restaurant is designed in a very unique and traditional way. I love the pink cherry blossom trees which planted in the center of the restaurant! I enjoyed a lot to eat the delicious food in this cozy environment. We ordered the signature food of this restaurant - Ginseng Chicken Soup and Ginseng Roasted Chicken. I preferred the Ginseng  Roasted Chicken more personally, because I felt the roasted chicken meat was more tastier :P

Let me show you more delicious photos of the food we ordered in this restaurant... Hope that you won't feel hungry after seeing these pictures :P

ToSokChon Ginseng Chicken Restaurant 土俗村人参鸡 - The restaurant is just located near Gyeongbokgung Palace 景福宫
ToSokChon Ginseng Chicken Restaurant 土俗村人参鸡 - The interior of the restaurant, looks very traditional and cozy
ToSokChon Ginseng Chicken Restaurant 土俗村人参鸡 - Free and refillable Kimchi and pickled radish. I preferred the pickled radish, as it was sweet and not too spicy and sour. The Kimchi was not bad too, as I don't really like to eat chili stuff normally, however I still can accept the taste of this Kimchi.

Beautiful Spring in South Korea - Gyeongbokgung Palace (Day 1, 04 Apr 2013)

I've been busy during the past few days to plan my upcoming travel trip... In order to book the best value accommodations, I spent some time to do research and made me lack of sleep now :( However, finally I found some time to continue to update my South Korea travelogue :)

Since the itinerary of this South Korea trip was planned by my friend who very experienced in planning free and easy trip, therefore, I didn't do much research before traveling to Korea. Most of the time, I just followed closely with my friends especially in the Seoul subway. During peak hours, the subway in Seoul are always crowded, therefore it is very easily to get lost in the crowd. I'm glad that my friends are very kind to take care of me :)

In Seoul, most of the time we just took the subway to reach the tourist spots, which is very convenient to us. I observed that most of the Koreans are generally have fair skin, tall and slim (both female and male)... So envy with their long and slim legs :P Just same like those K-pop singers I watched in the MTV :P Maybe they always eat Kimchi and walk on the subway staircases and make their legs so slim :P Haha...

Once we reached our guest house - Namsan 2 Guest House in Myeongdong 明洞, we left our baggage at the entrance of the guest house and directly took the subway to Gyeongbokgung Palace 景福宫. The guest house we stayed is very strategically located near the Seoul metro station, which is just about 3 minutes walk. I felt the Seoul metro network is quite complicated, you have to recognize the destination you want to go by checking the direction of the train where the last station it will stop at.

Since I didn't do much research for this trip, therefore I felt like I learned a lot about Korean culture and their history in Gyeongbokgung Palace 景福宫 through the free Chinese speaking guide. Our guide brought us to visit around the areas of Gyeongbokgung Palace 景福宫 and explained the Korea culture and the stories of the palace to us. I really enjoyed the guided tour in the palace :) In addition, we also watched the royal changing of the guards ceremony of Gwanghuamun 光化门 gate. I felt like I was placed in the era of Korean dynasty :P I'd captured some videos of this ceremony too, please scroll down to view it, if you have some free time :)

My breakfast - Banana Milk (recommended by my friend), very smooth and sweet. Bought it at the GS25 convenient store that nearby our guest house.
Beautiful flowers near the entrance of Myeongdong 明洞 metro station
Myeongdong 明洞 metro station - We were waiting for the next train to go to Gyeongbokgung 景福宫
Finally we reached the metro station near Gyeongbokgung 景福宫. Some ancient architectures are  displayed at the metro station.
The description of this door stated that after you pass through it, you will be forever young :) haha :P
Yay! Finally, we reached Gyeongbokgung 景福宫. Since we found out that if we purchase group tickets (more than 10 persons), the ticket price is cheaper (KRW 2,400). Therefore, we quickly grabbed other visitors to purchase the cheaper tickets together :P
The Main and South Gate of Gyeongbokgung 景福宫 - Guanghwamun 光化门
The Second Inner Gate of Gyeongbokgung 景福宫 - Heungyemun 兴礼门
Bought our cheaper ticket to visit Gyeongbokgung 景福宫. It was a good sunny day to visit the palace :) 
While waiting for the Chinese speaking guide of Gyeongbokgung 景福宫, we spent some time to capture photos around the palace
Our Chinese speaking guide of Gyeongbokgung 景福宫. She was explaining the map of Gyeongbokgung 景福宫. I like her traditional Korean dress, very cute :P
Geunjeongjeon 勤政殿 - I think this Gyeongbokgung 景福宫 is the famous shooting scene of many Korean dramas that I'd watched before
The king's seat 龙椅!
Other buildings in Gyeongbokgung 景福宫
Gyeonghoeru 庆会楼 - The hall that used to hold important and special state banquets during the Joseon Dynasty. I felt this place is really breathtaking! Love this scene!
Look at our Chinese speaking guide, she is so cute :)
According to the Chinese speaking guide, the main actress Lee Young Ae 李英爱 of the famous Korean drama - Dae Jang-Geum 大长今 is her high school mate!!
After the guided tour has ended, we strolled around the garden behind the palace! The first cherry blossom tree we saw in Seoul!
The royal guards of Guanghwamun 光化门.
So shy to take photos with the royal guards of Guanghwamun 光化门. They are very tall and they looked very serious :P
While waiting for the royal changing guards ceremony to be started around 3 pm, we visited the museum. Antique car displayed in the museum.

Beautiful Spring in South Korea - Depart to Incheon Airport, Seoul (Day 0, 03 Apr 2013)

It is the first time I travelled to the four seasons country during spring time. I love to see beautiful flowers, therefore during last year, when I heard my friends were planning the trip to Korea during spring to see cherry blossoms, I was excited and wanted to follow them to go together too!! I wish that one day I could see Sakura flowers in Japan too :P

Lucky for us that we able to book the cheap flight tickets to fly to South Korea. We visited 2 main tourist spot cities of South Korea - Seoul and Jeju Island. Before the trip, we checked the clothing guide during spring in South Korea, and the guide stated that cardigans, long sleeve shirt, long pants and scarf are recommended during spring in Korea. However, few days before the trip, I checked the weather forecast, the lowest degree was just 5 degrees of Celcius, OMG... The weather was just like winter season!! And the worst part was I didn't bring any gloves and winter jacket. I only fought the cold weather with my faux leather jacket and a long john shirt :(

Once we reached Incheon International Airport at Seoul, after we claimed our baggage, then we met with the driver we hired to transfer us to our guest house. Once we stepped outside the airport, the cold wind blew to us and I felt extremely cold!! :S The cold breeze was colder than the air flows out from the fridge! It took 1 hour journey to reach our guest house. We all were so tired after the long hours flight, therefore most of us slept in the car...

We took AirAsia X flight to Seoul in the midnight
After around 7 hours, we reached Seoul and beautiful sunrise welcomed us!
On the way to claim our baggage in Incheon Airport, Seoul
Quite some distance to reach the baggage claim area (Look at my tired face :S)
Four seasons sceneries of South Korea advertisement board in the airport
Waiting for the next train to go to another hall to claim our baggage
Yay! Found my luggages very quickly :)
Finally we reached the arrival hall!!
Cold wind welcomed us outside the airport :S

                      Hot Air Balloon Fiesta 2013 at Putrajaya (31 Mar 2013)

                      It's been quite some days I didn't update my blog... I'd been recently busy with my work, attending my friend's wedding, preparing my travel trip that is coming soon... I wish I have more time to complete more things in a day, or maybe I should improve my time management skills... haha...

                      It is the second time I visited Hot Air Balloon Fiesta! Due to I overslept, therefore we reached there about 8:30 am, which is late by 1 hour plus... So, again I missed the chance to see more beautiful hot air balloons flying to the sky :( (Especially for the 'Smurf' design one) But anyway, I'm still happy to see some cute hot air balloons which I didn't see in the last year... I wish that one day I could ride on the hot air balloon in Turkey :)

                      The sky was gloomy but very hot and my body was non-stop sweating!! However, it is preferable to be hot and sunny day rather than rainy day for this event. Else, the Hot Air Balloon Flying Show will be cancelled. This time we managed to queue up and take some beautiful photos inside the hot air balloon!! It is quite a nice experience :)
