Korea (7) - China Town

Our first destination for today, 02.08.2011 would be China Town. And places of interest around China Town. That would be covered slowly. While waiting for others to come down, had random shots in front of our hotel first.

Transportation is equally important to accommodation when one is traveling. The best mean of transportation would be the... train. I'd say MRT system in Singapore is advance and world class enough not until I saw South Korea's one.

Anyway. The nearest MRT station is only 5 minutes away from our hotel. That is like way way way convenient to us to get ourselves around the town.

That is it. The Baegun MRT Station. The nearest MRT station in China Town would be the Incheon Station which is the very last station. Not to mention our first experience purchasing MRT ticket. That was rather a headache.

We could not understand the language. We could not understand a single word. We could not understand a thing. Fortunate that it was the last station. Somehow we managed to do our ticket purchase in the end.

Boarded the train. Anticipating our next destination. We actually could notice many passengers were holding an umbrella in their hands. Weather in South Korea went haywire. Serious flooding reported in the news the week we were there. Weather forecast showed "raining" the whole week.

Oh well. There was no rain on 02.08.2011. Say Hallelujah? Hallelujah!

Ang again a random inside the train.

Finally we reached at the destination, Incheon Station and alighted.

And Hallelujah! Here we are, China Town! One thing. Why every China Town in this world has the similar entrance.. hmm. At least that one looks better than Malaysia's one. xD
