ALL ABOUT KOREA!
Since I have the access to the internet, I love to surf the internet and search for things I like. I enjoy searching and learning for beautiful places in the world. So, during this school holiday, I've been exploring Korea! (just in the internet huhu). I've always wanted to go to Korea since I was little. Probably because of the korean drama 'Winter Sonata' that took place at Nami Island hehe..
So, here's some of what I've found:
Seoul top sights:
- Gyeongbokgung (a very nice museum!)
- N Seoul Tower
- Lotte World (seems like Disneyland~)
- Cheonggyecheon
- Seoul Forest
- Grevin Seoul (wax museum)
- aaaand many more!

Lotte World is a major recreation complex in Seoul, South Korea. It consists of the world's largest indoor theme park (a Guinness World Record), an outdoor amusement park called "Magic Island", an artificial island inside a lake linked by monorail, shopping malls, a luxury hotel, a Korean folk museum, sports facilities, and movie theaters. Opened on July 12, 1989, Lotte World receives 7.3 million visitors each year.
It is the third largest park in Seoul city.Seoul Forest is a massive park dotted with over 400,000 trees and 100 different animals. This nature park is located in Seongsu-dong and covers an area of 1,200,000 m². The area that was once a royal hunting forest, became Seoul's first water purification plant in 1908, and later used for both racecourse and golf facilities. Now, it has been transformed into a park with a dense canopy of trees and a lake, where citizen can breathe the invigorating fresh air offered by nature.

The beach is popular with Korean tourists, although it has recently seen an afflux or foreign tourists, from China, Japan and Western countries. The beach and surrounding area is particularly crowded during the summer months of July and August. Amongst the sights of Haeundae are Dongbaekseom, at the West end of the beach, which is a popular fishing area.
Picturesque attraction featuring a village of colorful houses, painted murals, shops & cafes. This place is just so cute!!!πππππ

There are many more places in Korea and I'm still learning more about Korea. I wish I can visit Korea one day. It is really a wonderful place to escape from problems because I'm positive those attractions can turn someone's frown upside down!π
