Roof Garden in Seoul

Roof Garden

Roof Garden in Seoul, Korea.  I had never really been on one of the roof gardens, so I expected then to be kind of small.  However, apparently some of them are a pretty decent size!

Korean War Memorial

Korean War Memorial

The Monument at the War Memorial of Korean. Funny thing, I thought it was supposed to be the Korean War Museum (i.e. just that war), but it is actually dedicated to all the wars they’ve fought in. So it included stuff clear back to the ancient days. This monument though was their big dedication to the Korean War.

Seoul

I like this picture of Seoul; it almost looks like something out of the really old-fashioned cameras. 🙂

Dragon Gate

Dragon Gate

This Dragon helps hold up and ward the gates to the Yonggungsa Temple in Busan. Isn’t he darling!

Incheon’s Weird Red Shores

I was surprised to discover the weird red moss/sand stuff lining the shore of Incheon.  In some places, it looked like a red plain.

Yonggungsa Temple

Photo of Yonggungsa Temple in Busan, South Korea. This is one of the few Buddhist temples built along the coastline as opposed to more land-based mountainous areas.

Gyeongbokgung Palace

Gyeongbokgung Palace

Gyeongbokgung Palace, a beautiful complex of dozens of palaces, buildings, and museums. You can literally spend an entire day exploring just this. If you don’t have an entire day, definitely pre-choose where you are going to go.

Throne Room

Seoul Throne ROom

The throne rooms at the many Korean palaces in Seoul all seem to look alike. This is a very famous depiction of the palace thrones.
