I visited and stayed in South Korea a month ago, for 21 days. The memories are still attached to how this country also left a good impression for me. This country is famous for its technological progress. However, they also maintain their cultural heritage so that everyone who visits there will know the history of their civilization clearly.
Gyeongbokgung Palace is a palace located north of Seoul, South Korea. Gyeongbok Palace is one of the 5 large palaces and is the largest built by the Joseon Dynasty. This palace is also known as The Northern palace because its location is located north of the other palaces.
Since entering its main gate, visitors will find several palace guards in full clothing typical of the Joseon Dynasty. They stood in several corners of the palace carrying a protective spear. Yes, you can take pictures with them, but don’t make the video up close, they can be angry because they don’t like it.
Here every few hours a performance of the opening and closing of the Royal Palace Gates is held, complete with a ceremony to change the palace guard. This ceremony is carried out with a duration of 10 to 20 minutes and can be witnessed by all visitors to Gyeongbokgung Palace.
All of you who like to take pictures, can rent Hanbok, a typical South Korean clothing with prices ranging from 10000 Won. So that you will bring home beautiful and handsome photos like princesses and princes from the land of ginseng. Uhuii …
Entering, visitors can see the magnificent atmosphere of the kingdom because in addition to the large courtyard, there is a palace building complete with the main furniture inside that we can see.
This Gyeongbokgung Palace can be reached easily using public and scattered vehicles in Seoul.
Seoul Tower / Namsan Tower is located above Namsan Mountain with an altitude of 479 meters above sea level and is the most striking landmark in Seoul. The tower height is around 237 meters.
The color of the lights in the Namsan tower / Seoul Tower at night changes according to the current air condition. The blue color indicates the weather is very good. Green indicates the air condition is not too good and it is recommended to use a mask. While the red color shows that the air is very bad and people should not leave the house.
So I took the photo in a bad air condition. But the show must go on, for the sake of getting good photos, what do travelers do not do? And thankfully, until now I’m fine right, hehe … peace

Namhan-gang is called Yeo-alley in the area around Yeoju, a river that is one of the Yeoju City tour destinations. Visitors can ride a typical South Korean ship, circling around the river. From this ship we can see Silleuksa Temple from the direction of the river. After passing Yanggeun Port in Yangpyeong, the Namhan-gang River meets Bukhan-gang (the northern part of Han-gang) and forms a single river at Yangsu-ri.
Petite France is located in Gyeonggi-do province, South Korea. This place is a replica of the same name in Strasbourg, France. Located in the countryside, access to this place is indeed quite far from the city center in Seoul. This place became very famous because it became the location for filming several Korean drama films.
There are around 16 French-style buildings that visitors can freely enter. Almost all buildings are painted in pastel colors, making them look beautiful and attractive when viewed from the front and outside of the Petite France area.
One of the most iconic of Petite France is the statue of Little Prince, the fictional character of Saint-Exupery, the author of the legendary novel Le Petit France, which was first released in 1943. There is also a replica of the Eiffel Tower, which is one of the favorite spots for photographed.
Enjoy taking pictures as much as you like here …
