DAY05


First stop, we went to the Local Cosmetic Shop. Didn't bought any skincare as there is not much variety.

After the Local Cosmetic Shop, We also went to a Ginseng & Jewellery Shop.

Didn't got any of cos.. 


Its time for LUNCH, today we'll be having GINSENG Chicken Soup with abalone inside.  The soup is sweet & there is a fragrant smell of ginseng. YUMMY!  But no chilli, if there were chilli.. it would be great!!

On the way to the "Presidential Blue House".

BLUE HOUSE 

The Blue House or Cheongwadae (commonly syllabicated Cheong Wa Dae) is the executive office and official residence of the South Korean head of state, the President of the Republic of Korea.

GYEONGBOK PALACE

Our Tour Guide should have made a research before going. GyeongBok Palace was closed on every tue.

We didn't manage to go in this time.

We went to CHANGDEOKGUNG PALACE instead.

Changdeokgung Palace is the second royal villa built after Gyeongbukgung Palace in 1405. Changdeokgung was the principal palace for many of the Joseon.kings, and is the best preserved among the five remaining royal Joseon palaces.
