Serba sedikit info garden nih...

The Garden of Morning Calm (아침고요수목원), a 30,000㎡ flower garden, opens year-round for your enjoyment. The moment you enter the garden, you will see that it is a paradise for photographers, tourists, families and couples. The thousands of varieties of flowers coupled with pine trees, release an unforgettable aroma into the air that causes all worries to quickly melt away.

The garden is the oldest among private Korean gardens. It is an artistic space with a beautiful balance between Korean concepts of natural curves and asymmetry, plants and other various materials. It was the first to adopt the concept of a "garden" in Korea, and it is a special place that harmonizes classical grace and modern beauty. As a result, it attracts about 600,000 tourists annually.

Scenic walkways, beautifully manicured grass, and flower beds connect the garden's 20 different theme sections. The Sukgeun Garden is shaped like the Korean Peninsula and is carpeted with so many kinds of beautiful flowers on both sides representing the desire for South and North Korea to be reunited. It is easily one of the most popular and meaningful attractions of the garden.

The garden houses about 5,000 kinds of plants, including 300 varieties native to Baekdusan Mountain, known as spiritual mountain of the Korean people. The flowers are in bloom from March to November, so the garden is usually full during this period. In addition to the beautiful foliage of the garden, there are a variety of festivals and displays held monthly.

Yang nih peluk tiang...

Yang nih pulak peluk pokok...

Yang nih plak berpeluk pelukan kekekeke...

Kids enjoying the snow... 

Peluk lagi jangan tak peluk...

 

Kalau bleh nak buat macam kat tepi pantai kambus badan dalam snow...

Nampak terang and macam panas kan...

Tapi kalau nak banding dengan time pergi Beijing memang enjoy sangat weather di Seoul ni sebab walau bersnow tapi angin tak seberapa...  Time kat Beijing tu angin kuat dan merata tu yang menyumbang rasa sejuk even takde snow...

Tu sebab kat Seoul me tak pakai pun beanie hat...  Ada la 2pcs pica me berbeanie sebab saja je nak serkup kepala hehehe...

Lama kami berkubang dengan snow kat sini...  Orang pun tak berapa ramai maybe sebab ramai yang melepak kat rumah dengan family...

Tiap kali ada Korean lalu kat kami je mesti dorang dok sengih sengih tengok gelagat kitaorang...  Katanya kamilah group yang paling happy sekalik dorang tengok kekeke...

BTW Riaz takde dalam pica sebab tengah syok tido dalam pram...
