Korea: Namsan tower & shopping at Shinsegae (Day 25)

on top platform of Namsan tower

Saturday, 6th June 2015
Today we will visit the Namsan tower, although it's not really clear weather we hope to have a reasonable view when up on the platform. We take the cable car up to the 1st platform. A lot of activity there; food, places to sit, make selfies, artificial trees loaded with 'love padlocks', etc. We take the elevator up to the platform where you can walk around and see the city at your feet.

frying fish early in the morning in 'our alley' near the Rian hotel, which we always have to cross to go to the subway.

folklore

it's all about love ^-^

not so far from home


When back on the ground we decide to go shopping at Shinsegae Warehouse Store, which is a big one and very posh. They have all the famous couturier clothes, make-up, perfumes, all the European brands espresso machines, pottery, pans, you name it they got it; it's amazing. Gave us the 'KDW feeling'.
There's of course vallet parking, young good looking boys in beige trousers with red ties are waiting for the rich and beautiful.

We visit he restaurant on one of the top floors which has a rooftop garden with fountains. Parents take there children to play there. Funny to see Korean children don't like water that much as none of them is playing with water in the fountain.
