It’s so much fun to visit Everland. The place is so huge. My kids have a wonderful experience in their water show and rides. Roundtrip transfer is relaxing and smooth.
Many animals to visit. Very attractive games. Worth to visit.

Очень понравилось, были в будний день, хоть часть аттракционов была закрыта, но все остальные были без очередей и можно кататься до отвала, через trip.com выходит сильно дешевле чем покупать в кассе. Соверую совместить с зоопарком, но имейте ввиду что билеты в зоопарк купленные через trip не будут работать день в день, но мне вернули без проблем
actually i am an exchange student living in in Korea. Actual price is 45000won for adult but in trip.com it is about 20000won. Such a great deal we have a great time. for some tip : Go water slide first. cuz after 12pm you have to wait about 30 mins !!!!! in addition food in seoul land is not expensive and good compare to Lotte world and Everland….

When you go to Seoul, don't rush to the theme parks or Everland. Disneyland and Universal Disney are both better than these two. There are so many people at these two that it's annoying. Why not come to Seoul Grand Land? It has a park, a zoo, and a theme park. The tickets are cheap and it's close. Most importantly, there's no one there, my fellow Disney fans! I took my kids on a ride for over six hours. We had to run back and forth on the bumper cars after we finished. Which Disneyland ride doesn't take an hour? I even went to the whitewater rafting twice; it was so much fun. They even booked the entire theater for the 4D movie, and most of the restaurants there are decent ones. Trust me, bring your kids here; they don't like to wait in line just to take pictures.
Perfect family escape! Zoo, botanical gardens & rides. Don’t miss the cable car views! 🦁🌿🚠 #SeoulTravel #FamilyFun

This historical monument, which is included in the world cultural heritage, is really a surprise everywhere. 🌟 History is deep: 1794-1796, the 22nd generation of Wang Zhengzu of North Korea built it to mourn his father Zhuang Xianshizi, carrying the thoughts of his father and the political ambitions of the time. Walking in the city, touching the city wall through the years, as if you can hear the echo of that history, and experience the filial piety and grandeur of Zhengzu. For historical and cultural lovers, this is a living history museum! 🏰 Architectural characteristics are superb: the city wall is5.74 kilometers long, the defense facilities are super powerful, and the design integrates East and West architectural technology. The city tower moths and dough arches are exquisite and exquisite. Standing on the city wall, you can overlook the beautiful scenery of Suwon City. The city gate, hollow pier, corner building and other buildings are scattered, the layout is exquisite, and each place shows the wisdom of the ancients. 📸 There are a lot of punching points: the night view of the Badamen is absolutely unique, the lights are on, as if crossing back to ancient times, and a shot is a blockbuster. Hollow pier wartime is an observation post, now is a good place to explore history, standing inside, can imagine the bonfire years of that year. There is also a visit to China with Liuting, a unique architectural style, perfect integration with the surrounding natural environment, no matter from any perspective is beautiful. 🍜 The surrounding food is rich: After visiting Huacheng, you must try local food. Suwon roasted meat, the meat is fresh and juicy, it makes a noise on the roasting plate, the aroma is overflowing, with special side dishes, and it is super satisfying! There are also fish cake rolls, fresh fish meat made into Q-pop fish cakes, and then with special sauce, each mouth is the taste of the sea. 🎈 Play suggestion: From Seoul, take Metro Line 1 to Suwon Station, and then transfer to the bus directly, super convenient. You can reserve half a day to one day, stroll slowly, and savor history. The night view of Badamen at night is not to be missed. It is recommended to check the sunset time in advance and take beautiful photos.
The entry is free and you can hike around the entire fortress. I like that there are descriptions on what each part was used for throughout history. This is a must-see when visiting Korea!

Traveling in North Korea has become a model of modern national defense education, which helps to understand the history of the "War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea". The military-first policy has made life difficult for North Korean soldiers. They must be ready to sacrifice their lives for their country at any time. Such a life is really tragic.
Panmunjom is a unique place with people standing guard, nice scenery, unique architectural style, and super cost-effectiveness. It feels good to feel the atmosphere and environment in Panmunjom. It is a place worth visiting.

I had such a peaceful and memorable experience at Seoul Zoo—it’s truly the most beautiful zoo I’ve ever visited. Surrounded by nature, the whole environment felt relaxing and refreshing. The zoo is spacious, clean, and well-organized, with a wide variety of animals to see in naturalistic habitats.One of the highlights was the sky lift—it gave us a stunning aerial view of the entire zoo and the nearby landscapes. It added a fun and scenic touch to the visit and made getting around easier, especially for families.Overall, Seoul Zoo offers a perfect combination of wildlife, nature, and leisure. I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Seoul—whether you’re with kids, friends, or just want a calm day outdoors. I’d definitely go again!
Buying online is cheaper than buying on site! The zoo is convenient from the station and it only takes about 10mins.

JISAN Ski Resort is a 1-hour drive from the hotel. This is a self-funded project, which costs 350 yuan per person. If you don't ski, like our family with children, you can play tub skiing, which costs 200 yuan per person. This price already includes the rental of clothes, pants, skis and shoes, but does not include gloves and goggles. You just need to bring a pair of gloves in advance. Beginners don't need to use goggles.
First go to the equipment store to choose equipment, mainly clothes and pants.
Choose clothes and pants and put them on. It is recommended not to wear too much inside. Skiing is a sport after all, and you will sweat. If you wear too much, you will feel uncomfortable. For example, today's temperature is about 0.2 to 8 degrees, which is not very cold. After getting off the car, everyone was excited and couldn't wait to see what the ski resort is like.
According to your skiing level, the Jishan Ski Resort has different ski trails, both straight and curved.
The child is too young, so he can only go tub skiing. Of course, although this slide is safe, there are times when people fall down.
It is recommended to join a tour group. The staff at the ski resort do not understand Chinese and English. My Korean is too poor to communicate. Finally, I found a tour guide to help. It is very inconvenient to go there by yourself because the distance is far. There are 3 slopes in the ski resort, divided into high, medium and low levels. There were many people on the day I went there, and there were many tour groups.
