Day 5 in Seoul - Part I (The Garden of Morning Calm, Nami Island and Strawberry Picking)

I was a bit scared since, the weather was rather gloomy and afternoon rain shower was in the weather forecast ~ so with outdoor activities on schedule, we've decided to buy umbrellas just in case.

We walked our way to the Myeongdong Station, where the tour provider picked us up.


Our first stop was The Garden of Morning Calm.  This place showcases the best gardens in Seoul.  We must have taken hundreds of photos here.  It was near impossible to choose which ones to include in this blog.


I can't stress enough, how you must include it in your itinerary if ever you plan to visit Seoul.   

Fans of the Korean telenovela "Love in the Moonlight" will be thrilled to know that The Garden of Morning Calm was actually one the telenovela's filming location. 

 The morning drizzle added to the cool mountain breeze, which made our stroll more leisurely and refreshing!   




Unfortunately as the day progressed, rain starts to pour ~  Our Next Stop is going to be a wet one.  It was good we were armed with umbrellas :P

Please follow us to our Day 5 in Seoul ~ Part 2 at the NAMI Island.

    1. Hi Sis, saying this garden is breathtaking is an understatement. It is actually the best well kept garden we've seen.

  2. The place looks relaxing and calming, so bagay talaga yung name. I watched Love in the Moonlight. Nacurious ako bigla kung saan sila nagshoot.

    1. It is one of the best gardens I have seen. I in fact, liked it better than the gardens in Singapore.
