Salam and Hello to All ☺
Busan the second largest city in Korea and rich with beautiful culture, heritage, lifestyle and of course food!!
Most tourist visit Busan during summer time but GayaSeoul Travel wanted to experience Busan during Winter Time which is in January ^^
So, here goes the Ad Hoc ;
Our flight (Air Asia) from Kuala Lumpur take off at 1.00 am (Malaysia Time) & Arrived in Gimhae International Airport at 8.00 am (Korean Time) – One Hour Ahead of Time from Malaysia +1
Upon our arrival at Gimhae Airport, we took Airport Limousine Bus which cost us around KRW 4,500 (MYR15.00) To Haeundae Beach (Stop at Novotel)
Guest House that we stayed for 3days 2 nights is Indy Guesthouse located 3 minute walk to Haeundae Beach.
(Travel with GayaSeoul you will stay at Indy Guesthouse)
Upon our check in at Indy Guesthouse, we rest for around an hour and pray (Zohor + Asar = Jamaq). Then our journey start with generous meals from Punjab Indian Restaurant (Halal) The price is affordable and surprisingly delicious.
Later after Lunch, we went to Haeundae Beach and it is Freaking Cold!! Horl ^^
Later at the evening, we went to The Famous Fish Market is Busan!! Jagalchi Fish Market ☺ We are super super excited !!
We ate Raw Flat Fish and some Shell Food I don’t even know what is the name ^^
We tot eating the raw fish could make us all feel full….NOT!! We went to the nearest convenient store nearby our Guesthouse and bought a lots of Snacks!!
On the second day, we went to Busan Station to purchase our train ticket to Seoul. You can do it online (www.letskorail.com) as well but we choose to buy it at the counter so that we know how to go on the day of departure. The ticket price from BUSAN >>> SEOUL is KRW 59,900 (MYR 200.00)
After purchased the ticket, we went to Gamcheon Cultural Village known as the Korean Santorini. It is free entrance and we use a short cut to the place ^^ Not many people know about this but GayaSeoul Travel do ☺
It is a free entrance, however you can buy the map at KRW 2000 (MYR 6.00) and collect them stamp to redeem special gift. We did not manage to finish the course coz we are super tired and exhausted… Horl ☹
At night, we wanted to go Taejongdae but because of the time is running out, we skip that out and back to Haeundae to have dinner.
So dinner time, GayaSeoul Travel went to Jaws Food famous with their overly spicy tteokbokki in Korea. Sedap dan Sangatla Pedas!!!!
After dinner, we head back to the Guesthouse and pack for tomorrow departure to Seoul at 7:30 am. Yes very early in the morning so that we could spend more time in Seoul.
The next day, as early as 5.30 am we depart from Haeundae by bus to Seoul Station. Around 6.15 am, we arrived in Seoul Station and bought a breakfast and snacks in convenient store.
The train depart sharp at 7.30 am and take around 3 hours to Seoul. We arrived in Seoul Station around 10.30 am and arrived at our accommodation around 11.00 am.

DONGDAEMUN DESIGN PLAZA (DDP) EDITION
SEOUL SOUTH KOREA
The origin of this concept is the perceived need of architecture to allow people to imagine what they could not before. The DDP will realize the public character and design objectives by pursuing spatial flexibility of a building and park that are associated with the flow of liquid. At the same time, the DDP will serve as an educational resource for designers and the public as well as an architectural edifice that adjusts to ongoing cultural changes.
By Zaha Hadid
Architect: Zaha Hadid (http://www.zaha-hadid.com)
