Trip to Korea - Day 4 (Blue House, Gyeongbokgung Palace, National Folklore of Museum, Ice Gallery, Steamboat, Myeongdong, Seafood Buffet Dinner)

It took me a long long time to blog again. As there is only one reason : LAZY. Let's get back to the Korea trip to finish this whole Korea blog, shall we ?

Again, early morning, we had our breakfast somewhere in Seoul.. It was a buffet style breakfast with lots of tourists there. After that, we proceeded to the Blue House, the Korean President's residence. Notice the hill behind the blue house? The tour guide said that it looks like a dragon.. Look at the two white round eyes there?

We only walked passed by this place, took a few shots and left and continued our journey to the Gyeongbokgung Palace. So, if it happens, that you are walking pass this place, take photos as much as you like.. coz you will not walk back to this place. It is like a route where you walk along following the path to the exit.
I do not know that we will not return to this place again after passing by this beautiful building. Hence, only took limited shots around this area.
Reaching the National Folklore of Museum, here are what you can see..

All around the palace..

Kesian lah these people standing still for so long.. and many people walk near to them to take photos
Then we went to the Ice Gallery ..
It was very cold inside there so each person was given a towel to cover themselves up
Ice Cup Making Competition. We were all busy carving our own ice cup ..
While on the way to lunch, saw this motorbike with cute gloves !
Our lunch on Day 4
We were brought to some Amethyst Factory to see a wide selection of jewellery. We spent quite long time there as to wait other tour-mates aka auntie to buy jewellery. After that we went to Myeongdong for SHOPPING! Gosh this place is like a shopping heaven. Great for people who wants to buy korean skin care & cosmetics.
The Etude House is so lovely !
