South Korea Trip Part V

Day 6th, (Dec 27th, 2010)
8am, checked out, all big luggages left in hotel, we travelled light. Walked around 5mins to subway station near hotel heading to Seoul Station, changed our 3 days unlimited pass Koreail Tickets by showed the clerical our passports & temporary tickets I got when booked the tickets and paid deposit with my credit card. It was cheaper than buy oneway or roundtrip tickets.
From Seoul Station, we rode on bullet train (similiar with Japan Shinkansen) to Gyeongju, capital of Shilla Kingdom with hundred years historical sites and buddhist temples. I went to this place about 7 years ago by my self, travelled alone and I fell in love with this city. So peace & quiet. I dont know why but this city was very familiar.
The train was stopped at Sin Gyeongju station. At the outside of station we waited for the bus to brought us to Gyeongju Bomun Lake Complex. The bus stopped right infront of our hotel. Hotel Concorde. 4 stars hotel with affordable price. We reserved 2 rooms with 4 beds as well. What I like from hotel in Korea is they provide hotel with 4-5 beds in 1 room.


After checked in, almost 5 oclock. We took bus infront of hotel to visited few historical sites that opened 'til night.

Cheomseongdae Observatory, the oldest existing astronomical observatory in the Orient
