Travel Guide South Korea

I met a korean English teacher, Shin in the bus to National Museum of Gyeongju. She lives in Daegu but I didn't have the time to visit her cause I had planned my visit to Chunyang the next day to Joy farm.


The admission is free until end of December 2009.


Entrance of museum.

King Seongdeok's bell.







A roof design.

After Bulguksa, I rode no 12 bus, 1,500 won to go to Seokguram grotto. It was a very winding road.


A big bell - if I'm not mistaken it is Queen Seondok's bell. The same queen in the saeguk drama for MBC.

The day was so shiny and bright.


You can drink water from here.

I walked about half a kilometer to reach the seokgurram grotto.






A malaysian's wish.

However, the seokgurram grotto was put behind glass to preserve. I was so disappointed because the statue was so beautiful!!



Admission to Seokgurram grotto is 4,000 won.

I went to Gyeongju on the 25th November for a day trip. The bus fare was 4,000 won for a 1 hour drive from Busan (Nopodong bus terminal). There's a bus like every half an hour.

My ticket.

Gyeongju bus terminal.

I took bus no 11 to Bulguksa. You could ride bus no 10 too. The fare was 1,500 won. Since Gyeongju is further north than Busan, a lot of the autumn leaves fallen.

The road to Bulguksa.

I guess if it is in autumn, this place would be gorgeous.

I drank the water from here too much I guess and caught a cold after that. Not because of the water but I didn't have enough rest. Too much play and no work..hehehe.

Bulguksa and they were the japanese tour





















Before going to Seokgurram, I had my lunch - Ddeok Ddeok. This one is Dotorimuk

The root in spicy sauce is ddeok ddeok. So delicious!!! It was 10,000 won.
