Okay guys let's start our trip here, and I'll tell you about Incheon Airport. Incheon airport (인천국제공항) located in 48km west of Seoul and known as the largest airport in South Korea, and it is one of the largest airport in the world and it is rated as the best airport worldwide, by Airports Council International. The airport has a golf course, spa, private sleeping rooms, ice skating rink, a casino, indoor gardens and a Museum of Korean Culture. Well, I think that's enough about Incheon Airport, let's continue our trip to other destination guys!!!
Uhmmm...I guess the second place of our trip is Cheong Wa Dae or Presidential Blue House, this is the presidential house of South Korea Republic. It called Blue house because the color of Cheong Wa Dae's roof is blue. Cheong Wa Dae consists of several rooms such as main office building, Yeongbin-gwan 영빈관, and Chunchugwan 춘추관 (conference room).
What do you think about Cheong Wa Dae guys??
Okay, and now we are heading to Gyeongbokgung 경복궁 also known as Gyeongbok Palace. It is a royal palace located in northern Seoul, South Korea. First constructed in 1394 and reconstructed in 1867, it was the main and largest palace of the Five Grand Palaces built by the Joseon Dynasty. The name of the palace, Gyeongbokgung, translates in English as "Palace Greatly Blessed by Heaven."
