While I’m writing a brief travelogue of my travel in Seoul, here is a photo taken in one of the largest and oldest ancient palace of Korea, the Gyeongbokgung Palace.

The weather so far is perfect in Korea with plenty of sunshine at day and breezily cool at night,with no rain and temperature not lower than 16 degree Celcius.

More stories on my travel to Korea will be coming up next. Until then, bye! – Travel Feeder

Melbourne Cricket Ground
With a capacity of 100,000 spectators, the Melbourne Cricket Ground is a famous tourist attraction in Melbourne. Hosting everything from marathons to cricket matches, rugby to Australian football, ticket prices are quite reasonable. Furthermore, it gives you a chance to experience a magnificent atmosphere that only the eighth largest stadium in the world can provide.

Sovereign Hill
Once a city where gold was found in abundance, tourists come to Sovereign Hill to get a taste for what life was like in the 19th century when people searched for gold in the river. Sovereign Hill offers you a chance to follow the same school lessons from the 19th century, see how the ancient steam engine worked and pan for gold in the river. There are also shops selling refreshments here and one not to be missed is the candy shop on Main Street which sells delicious caramel fudge and lollipops.

Phillip Island
For the animal lovers, Phillip Island is a great place to get up close and personal with the native penguins that live there. Every afternoon the penguins return to the mainland from the sea and if you come early enough, you will be so close that the penguins will pass right by you within touching distance.

St Kilda beach
The St Kilda beach is a short trip away from the centre of Melbourne, and because it is one of the some popular attractions it easily accessible by public transport in the summer months. One of the great things about the beach is that it is lined with grassy gardens and palm trees, so when the scorching summer sun becomes too much you can retreat to sitting in the shade while still enjoying being by the beach.

Bourke Street
Located in the heart of Melbourne’s Central Business District, Bourke Street is a great way to pass the time while exploring the city. While there are different department stores for those looking to go shopping, there are also many souvenir shops, bars and restaurants that you can stop off at.
While you wander down the street you will be treated to the numerous street acts that play different kinds of music, and occasionally there are street dancers that add to the charm of the city. If you’re planning on flying here, be sure to compare cheap flights to Melbourne online for the best deals.

Royal Botanical Gardens
Located across the Shrine of Remembrance, the Botanical Garden is a 36 hectare park that tourists can enter for free. With over 50 thousand plants and trees, some of which are native only to Australia, and a children’s garden for youngsters, it is easy to see why the park is one of the most visited spots in Melbourne. While exploring and relaxing in the park, visitors can have their own barbeques to add to the experience. – Travel Feeder

I’m keeping more or less my preliminary drafted itinerary for the trip without substantial changes. I’ve booked domestic flights from Busan to Jeju then Jeju back to Seoul. I’m not getting Korail Pass to cover my train travels in Korea since I’m not going to travel extensively on trains. Instead, I will get a T-Money reload card when I arrive at the Incheon Airport and top it up for my about-city travel in Seoul, Busan and Jeju, by mainly either subways or buses.

After all, it’s going to be an interesting trip for me after my Japan travel 6 months ago. I would love to see if Korea could beat Japan to become my best travel destination next. The only concern I have is certainly the ambiguous situation of the Explicit tension in between North and South of the peninsula.

Follow my itchy travel feet to Korea as I’m going to share all my stories and travel photos of Korea here in my upcoming posts. For the time being , read my past stories and photos on other popular destinations across Asia and Europe and see where I’ve been to on my Travel Map.
