It was the last night I'm staying at the JK Ramada Encore Jeju Hotel. I can't bear to leave this amazing hotel as the facilities there are extremely good, and I'm really satisfied that the hotel room has a lot of powerpoints to charge your phones. ;-;

10:40 AM : Taking the bus that will take us to the arrival hall π
10:45 AM : WELCOME TO BUSAN EVERYBODYY!! YAYπ
10:54 AM : Collected our luggages, and we're waiting for the bus to arrive. π
It was then I started to feel a bit cold because of the strong wind blowing into my face
yes, that's right.
12 DEGREES, SHIOK SHIOK HEHE π
11:08 AM : yAy, the bus has arrived!! Off to explore Busan hohoho π

12:54 PM : Well, we had to climb uphill before we reach the place. π
12:58 PM : I can feel the strong wind blowing into my face. So cold.... SO COLD π
Pano shot of Oryukdo Skywalk
Well, I did some research on this attraction before flying there, and I was anticipating to visit it to be honest hehe. π
The skywalk is about 35 meters high and it is in the shape of a horse-shoe. It was built between the East Sea and the South Sea and depending on the sea tide, you can see either 5 or 6 islands.
After looking at the pictures of the skywalk, I really cannot wait to visit there!! And I was really really amazed at the scenery, and that I was fortunate to be able to see it in real life. π
01:05 PM : We needed to wear the overshoes to cover our shoes, so as to not dirty the glass floor which will allow us to see the bottom of the skywalk.
MUM AND DAD π
FAMILY PICTUREEπ
DON'T WE LOOK CUTE WEARING THE OVERSHOESππ
Family selfie? π
Well, they prohibited using selfie sticks, so why not use your fish-eye lenses and your hand to take pictures right? π
Thanks Dad for the picture!! π»
Can you tell how amazed I am of such a breath-taking scenery? π
01:15 PM : Time to explore around before heading back to the bus π
Me being the photographer again π
I think this is cool? π
Can you see the Oryukdo Skywalk?
My face as round as a watermelon sia, what is thisπ
And yes, my smile damn stiff because the cold wind has frozen my face.....
I mean even I could not tolerate the strong gust of cold wind, can you imagine my parents complaining to go back to the bus? HAHAHAHAπ
01:26 PM : There's a mini fish market!! π
Okay, last picture of me and the scenery π
01:35 PM : Off to the next destination
02:10 PM : Arrived at our second destination of the day,
Santorini Village, also called the Gamcheon Culture Village
I think this was the place that made me want to visit Busan the most. π Well, if you have watched the Running Man Episode, they had filmed an episode here before. I was really amazed by the array of colours of the different houses there and also the different murals and scrulptures that you can see around the village. IT'S SO BEAUTIFUL π
Based on my research I did, the village was a place where refugees lived during the Korean War, as Busan was the only place that was not affected by the war. In 2009, the houses were refurnished and rebuilt and the village became decorated with colourful houses and every street you walk at, there will be graffiti, murals and sculptures. I was really delighted to be able to visit that place, honestly, NO REGRETS!! π
gOT some postcards of both the day and night of the Gamcheon Culture Village π
02:20 PM : Time to explore Gamcheon Culture Village!! π
02:24 PM : Spot the cat? π±
I heard this post box will post your letter to the address you have written for you, but it'll take about 1 year before it arrives. π
02:25 PM : At the rooftop of observatory site π
I'm really amazed ππ
I forgot to mention that the observatory site has 3 levels, and this is the highest level. π
Pano of the top view!! π
Oh, I was holding onto the maps where we can get stamps when we find the places that were mentioned in them. There are maps in English, Chinese and Korean!
Thanks Dad for climbing up with me to take this picture π
02:34 PM : Okay, officially exploring around the village!! π
Okay I needed to take this picture..... ππ
02:35 PM : Time to get stamps on the map!! πͺ
There are love locks here too!! π
The famous Little Prince & The Fennec Fox.
Well, there was a lot of people queuing up to take pictures there! π±
Well, I took picture at the Lighthouse Photo Zone, since there was no one there, cuz why not right? π
02:54 PM : Continue the exploration! π
The view is extremely nice π
Follow the mural down the streeet!! π£
Why not take pictures with the beautiful murals right?
And yes, the road is downhill, it's not the camera angle... π
The signs to guard us of the directions➡
03:18 PM : As we were running out of time, it is time to head back to the bus to our next destination π
03:58 PM : Arrived at the third destination, BIFF Square
Well, it wasn't in the itinerary but since it's near the place where we are having dinner, Jackie allowed us to shop for a short while before heading for our dinner! π
JOONG KI OPPA!! π
04:00 PM : Time to try out some Korean food, shall we?

Meanwhile, we walked past the Jagalchi Fish Market, bloop bloopπ
Dinner for the day : Jagalchi Buffet
We get to grill meat!! π€€
All the vegetables, because my mum still want to have a healthy meal.
Her definition of a healthy meal : More vegetables, less meat π€¦
Yes, you see what i mean....
SO, this is the amount of meat (and mushrooms) my parents got for the 3 of us. Yup.... π
Black sesame paste (isit or isit notπ€)
Not forgetting seaweed soup too!! π€
.... I think I thought this is breakfast because.......
Gerry, really, cereal, really?
Oh, that's me being a tourist and taking pictures of the dishes π
06:38 PM : After dinner, the sky has already darken and the city neon lights are up!✨
07:28 PM : Reached the hotel that we will be staying for one night!
Best Western Busan Hotel
1 night stay in this hotel room!
I think the hotel view is nice!! π
07:50 PM : Decided to hang down to have a walk on the streets of Busan since we did not get to explore when we were in Jeju π
I must say, the city lights in Busan are so beautiful and nice!! π
I'm so happy because I found Nature Republic, that sells their facial masks really cheap!! π€
09:14 PM : Reached back the hotel room! π
Things that I bought for the day!! π
I got this pink teddy bear at the Gamcheon Culture Village. Well, so that I hang it on my bag or something, but up till now, I have not hang it on any of my bags HAHAHA π
I'M A HAPPY GIRL BECAUSE LOOK AT ALL THESE FACIAL MASKS ππ
Bought the Banana Yogurt Drink to try outπ
Well, because it was quite late already, so I drank it the next day instead.
09:36 PM : Time to sleeeep.
Sleeping early because today was quite a hectic and busy day when we walked a lot and climbed a lot of uphills. π To be honest, I really enjoyed exploring Busan as the places of attractions are amazing and the views are breath-taking. Also, I really love the lively atmosphere at night (and the beautiful city lights too!!)
Sadly, we weren't given much time to explore the Gamcheon Culture Village, but if given the chance, I would really like to visit Busan again one more time, especially the Gamcheon Culture Village, just let me explore the whole village please π
Anyways, day 4 is done and I can't wait to continue sharing with you my travelling blog posts in Korea!! I know I'm taking a really long time to edit and publish these blog posts, but I'm really trying my best to publish these asap yup yup. Anyways, that's the end of day 4 of my travelling blog in Korea.
Take care~
