QUOTE(leonghan @ Jul 10 2012, 03:52 PM) any1 here went everland before ?? is it worth to visit ?? fren force u to put in then bo bian liaw lo. Actually im not a theme park fans but fren force me to put it into the itinerary... need yours advice here its nice in my opinion,its not juz a themepark,got animal section in it as well..the park itself is big,wont feel crowded inside ther (try go during weekdays lah) the firework at the end of the day is superb (during christmas period).. if follow my standard, Everland>USS>HK Disneyland. and the best part is Everland is the cheapest among 3 parks i mentioned. |

I not encourage you to go buta buta there because you will be at the losing end. Seoul is big. You must plan what to do and where to go. If you go buta buta there, you will end you doing jumble programme. One moment going there, one moment going here, one momeng going over there.

QUOTE(@secret@ @ Jul 23 2012, 11:21 AM) im confused with various type of naming of their accommodation there. more family-oriented probably means they will cook n invite u to eat? so typically which kind of budget-moderate accommodation is more family-oriented? guest house? inn? hotel? as for Inn,its budget type Hotel.. Hotel juz normal hotel lo.. |
