Starbucks Hopping in South Korea (Part 1)

South Korea is known for its coffee culture and unique cafes in Yeonnam-dong and Ikseon-dong. Apart from that, Seoul Korea Starbucks are very outstanding and I have been on an Starbucks exploration during my recent trips. 1. Imagine sipping in the World's tallest Starbucks in the World! Watch the sun set while savouring a cup of cake with pastries at Level 99 at Busan X The Sky at Haeundae. 2. Gyeongju has several UNESCO heritage sites. This hanok Starbucks in Gyeongju is a landmark representative of the city's historical culture. It is located near Daereungwon where the ancient royal family tomb lies. 3. Starbucks Reserve Famille Park was built with a geometric glass dome. It has a unique architecture internally and externally. This was built in 2014 (10 years ago! ) in celebration of Starbucks' 15th year in Korea and this is its 800th store! Let me win my next trip to explore the beautiful South Korea!

Cannot wait to visit Korea again

I Visited Korea recently and it was HEAVEN!!!!! I went to Seoul and Busan to visit the many famous historical landmarks and attractions such as Gyeongbokgung Palace, N Seoul Tower, Bukchon Hanok Village, Gamcheon Cultural Village, Haeundae beach and many more!!!! And how can you visit Korea without eating their variety of delicious foods 😋😍. As I am a big foodie, I visited the famous food markets such as Gwangjang Market, namdaemun market and Myeongdong market and tried many of their food sold such as gimbap, tteokbokki, kalguksu, mandu and many more as shown in the pictures. Just thinking about the food is making my mouth watering again 😭😭😭. If you're also into facial products like me, remember to check out olive young for they affordable and wide variety of products! They are everywhere so it is easy to buy things that you have forgotten or last minute want to buy. The people there are also extremely friendly from my experience. Korea is a must visit place for everyone going overseas with their friends, families or love ones. I can't wait to go back again in the future #south_korea #seoul #busan

Namsan Tower in Autumn 🍂

Dont lie to me that you dont know the existence of Namsan Tower. Its like a must go place when you're coming to South Korea. You will see it from every angle of Seoul. Its kind of symbolic of Seoul. There's few way to get up there (cablecar, bus, walk). I would recommend cable car bcs its easier. There's so many things to do there too. Please come visit this tower if you're coming to Korea later. Its worth it to see the view of Seoul from above. #southkorea #seoul #namsantower

Gamcheon Color Village

Gamcheon Color Village :The famous village in Busan appears on many TV channels as well as in music videos, featuring houses painted in vibrant colors alternating with each other. - Colorful village with beautiful small houses with bright colors intermingled to create a beautiful and poetic village next to the sea. Looking from the bus station at the beginning of the entrance, you can see the whole scene of the rows of houses that are layered with alternating colors. - How to go: Arrive at Busan sasang bus station, Take LINE 2 to 서면역Seomyeon Station -> TRANSFER LINE 1 to 도성역 Toseong Station, then get off. Out of the train station you can see the village on the high hill. From here you can take a bus or a taxi to go up to the village. If you want to walk, you can go up. However, with hot summer weather, I recommend taking a bus or taxi to be fast and save energy because the village is quite large and steep, so take your time to explore the village.

💄Rent a Beautiful Hanbok.🥰

Shop Name: Hanbok That Day Bukcheon address- 종로구 Jongno-gu 사간동 97-7 Seoul, Korea Transportation - Subway Line 3, Anguk Station, Exit 1 It was a great experience to wore a hanbok.

But most of it, owner are super friendly and accomodate our questions and show excellent hospitality. They are so kind and humble. Don't question their profesionalism. The best! Place located near the Gyeongbokgung palace easy to find! 10/10 #เที่ยวเกาหลี

Jika Anda mencari tempat menarik untuk melepas penat dan stres, maka Lotte World merupakan pilihan terbaik.

Galleria, South Korea

Taking on a geological appearance, the Galleria was designed with a textured mosaic stone facade to evoke natural themes — the idea was inspired by the nearby park and its features. Like a “sculpted stone emerging from the ground,” the building is a visual landmark and focal point for the surrounding area. The mosaic stone was created using pixelated triangles to give the cube form of the building a textured pattern. The exterior stone panels were coordinated with DAEHYE Interior Design & Architecture. OMA also worked with 3DPRIYOL, façade consultant VS-A, and smart node curtain wall consultant Withworks to bring the ambitious façade of the Galleria to life. With the aim of introducing a new element to the department store typology, the team created an “excavated public route” that emerges from the stone volume. This clear addition was made to connect retail and cultural activities, in addition to linking the roof garden with the public sidewalk. The design team noted that the public route uses multifaceted glass to contrast with the opacity of the stone. Through this glass, retail and cultural activities inside are revealed to the city’s passers-by, while visitors in the interior acquire new vantage points and views to experience Gwanggyo. #kidsoceanworld #thailandmarkets #bangkoktravel #themepark#zoo#nationalpark#lakes
