A Visit to Seoul, Korea - Day 3 of 6 (Part 1/3)

It has been quite a few days ago since I have posted on Day 2. I hope the momentum is still there to write about my experience, as the work life is really hectic...better don't talk much about it; don't want to affect my mood now. So, lets continue with our Day 3....

DAY 3: 23/11/12 (Friday) - Part 1/3

A very tired day after lots of activities on Day 2. Because of that, I didn't really took any photos of our breakfast. Basically, the options were more or less the same like yesterday, except we have scramble eggs!!!


We had breakfast in the Sorak Daemyung Resort, the first time we had our breakfast in our resort that we stayed. Right after our breakfast, we have to get back to our room, pack everything and go down to the lobby at 8.50am. Our first destination of the day is to the Teddy Bear Museum, which only open at 9.00am. Since the Teddy Bear Museum was just walking distance from our lobby, we are supposed to walk there, but it was raining. End up, Melvin got all of us in the bus and drove to the nearby Teddy Bear Museum. We reached in just 2 minutes. We were given only 1 hour to explore this place, sounds like very limited time for a museum, but lets see...


There are a few Teddy Bear Museum in Seoul, depending on which one you want to go. As far as the tour package is concern, I guess its all depend on the itinerary route that the company had planned for us, where we had visited the Teddy Bear Museum Seorak. It is a unique museum displaying hundreds of large and small teddy bears to depict the international cultures from different countries. Not a big one but enough for you to rush your ways to capture the cute scene of teddy bears in different themes based on different countries. I did managed to capture some main themes of teddy bear for sharing purposes....enjoy!

The moment you look at all these pictures, you may think that it is just another museum that creates a hype by using the bear. However, if you were there, you will be amazed by the workmanship of creating the dress and the settings of each theme; lots of hard work! Glad to be there to see how Teddy Bear can be so lovely to represent the culture of many countries.

From the Teddy Bear Museum, we then headed to one of the Biosphere Preservation District by UNESCO, the Seoraksan National Park, which was around 1 hour drive from Sorak Daemyung Resort .

Its getting late and too tired to continue writing. Will be continuing the experience to the amazing 'big mountain of snow' tomorrow :)
