My Trips to Yongsan

A few posts ago I mentioned that I would be posting about my trip to Yongsan. Yongsan is a military base pretty much in Seoul. I believe it is one of the biggest posts in South Korea. I go here often as it has many stores and things to do. However recently I have gone off the base with two of my friends and we have been exploring the many shopping districts around Seoul but overall just sightseeing.

I hope you are in the mood to see lots of pictures because I have a lot of them. 

This is one of the tallest buildings in Seoul. We decided to take the elevator to the top floor (33) to get a good view of this . . .

When we got done looking at the view we decided to try to take the stairs to a higher floor but couldn't get anywhere. However we found out that the door leading into the stairwell on the 33 floor locked behind us, so we had to take 66 flights of stairs down to the ground level. No fun, but I guess that's what we get for going where we weren't supposed to be.

Some booths for street vendors.

Craved figures outside a shop.

This guy was copying this painting onto this large cloth right in the middle of the street.

A national monument. This bell tower was built, burned down, and rebuilt since 1396.

This family was performing next to this small river running through Seoul.

There was lots of figures like tennis players, soccer, softball, etc. hanging form these arches for the Olympics.

  I even got to see the Olympic torch without even having to go to Beijing. This was near a large tv playing the Olympics.

Elvis even decided to show up to watch the Olympics.

That's all I have for know so until next time Me and my new friend are saying goodbye.
