| Subway lines ..... clean and efficient |
Subway lines in Seoul are rather efficient, the only headache will be the complexity of the lines.
All is not lost though, the lines are identified by numbers and colours. If your destination station is in the same line colour and number, you have nothing to worry, just hop on and look for the destination station. If you are colour blind, you still have number to take your worries off....hehe. Make sure the direction is correct. Luckily all stations name are written in English.

GYEONGBOKGUNG PALACE
When visiting foreign countries, we try to understand their history and culture as much as possible. I definitely will read few articles or books on those countries. [Coming up: books review]. So here, our first stop, an old palace.

| Gyeongbokgung Palace... Too many errors in spelling this palace name, but this is an awesome place, I mean palace |

They are rather tall and serious.....maybe just because I am short.
There are many palaces within Seoul itself. The other popular palaces are Deoksugung, Changdeokgung, ChangGeonGung Palaces. Don't blame me if I got the spelling wrong, told you it's hard. As for us, we were happy enough visiting just one palace. I guess the rest are more or less the same?
Enough of palace visit, let's start shopping......

NAMDAEMUN MARKET
Namdaemun market is a must for tourist. You can find anything under the sun, but we were there when the sun starting to set though.
ROUTE: Subway Line 4, Hoehyeon Station, Exit 5, Metro Line 1, City Hall station
