Day 3, Back to Seoul, Streets of Itaewon & Taking the subway

At about 11am, the tour guide came to pick us up from the hotel. And like any tour guide, he brought us to another so called duty-free shop.

Try to avoid shopping at places where tour guides bring you. I bought 3 bookmarks here which costed 3000 won each. I saw the same bookmark at Dongdaemun for 1500 won and 2000 won at Insadong! Total rip off!

DO NOT BUY ANYTHING FROM HERE UNLESS NECESSARY

And so..i arrived at our hotel. Four star. Very impressive i must say.

Capitol Hotel

Decided to go to Myeongdong, hence the beginning of a really long walk to the Itaewon subway station.

Interesting house on the way

A snapshot of a seller before getting chased away by her. =X Looks so comfy in there.

After about 20 minutes walk, we arrived at the subway.

Tourist information centre, good thing most of them can speak english

The ticket

Evacuation kit

The train arrives on time. =D
