Korea Winter Trip Part 2

Image
The trip to Korea was really fun - the food, travelling between different cities and enjoying the winter season (even though we were too early for the snow). Day 1: Flight from Singapore to Korea (Overnight) This was a shot taken during our flight. Overall, it took us about 2 hours from SG to Vietnam, followed by a 3 hours transit before another flight to Korea for ~4.5hours.  It was really exciting to be on a free & easy trip in a non-English-friendly country to be independent and taking charge of the itinerary planning. The subway lines are little complicated so it will be good to have a map of the different lines. One thing to note is that the Koreans are very fast-paced in the subway and there are designated (unspoken) seats in each cabin specially reserved for the elderly. Day 2 - Arriving in Korea, Dongdaemun, Samcheongdong & Noryangjin Wet Market After arriving Korea, we took the AREX train followed by the subway to where we were staying - Ramada Hote
