Hiking outside Busan




We went hiking near Beomusa temple in Busan. It was beautiful and scary at times- especially going down a steep, rocky mountain. We both survived though, and then went to the largest spa/bathhouse in Asia. It was amazing and felt so good after a full day of hiking.

War Memorial Museum





The War Memorial Museum in Seoul was powerful and sad. It had great displays and sculptures showing Korean's history with war.

Geungbukdong Palace



Another huge palace in Seoul. There was a great folk museum next to the palace with lots of Korean history.

Suwon Folk Village





Suwon Folk Village- it was a really long subway ride from Seoul. I hope I find a faster way from Suwon next year.

Hike in Seoul
