Hey Guys!
Come with me as I travel to the south-west of South Korea to Mokpo! Mokpo is a port city with many tourist attractions!
We left for Mokpo early Saturday morning, taking an express bus! This took roughly 4 hours. After arriving in Mokpo at around 1pm we headed straight to the 'Mokpo Modern History Hall', this hall talks about the history and importance of Mokpo as a port city, and how it has developed over time. Next we headed to 'Colombang Bakery', one of the top five bakeries in the nation, where we had some delicious savoury and sweet snacks. Our next stop was the Mokpo cable car, one of my favourite things to do in all of Korea! Korea has a cable car called 'crystal' and these cable cars have a glass bottom! Being able to see amazing views from almost every angle is one of my favourite things! You can get off the cable car and explore the island, there is a cafe and other scenic attractions.
The next morning, we woke up bright and early to hike Yudalsan. A mountain in the centre of Mokpo city. Yudalsan has an amazing view and isn't a very difficult hike so I would definitely recommend it! Next, we headed to 'Brick Lane Cafe' for a western breakfast! One of my favourite things to do on a Sunday morning. Something that has become a habit of mine. Finally, we booked a ferry and headed out to Oedaldo Island. Known as the 'love island'. Oedaldo is a very quiet island and is mainly known for it's salt water pool, located close to the dock. Honestly, I think I ended up enjoying the ferry ride more-so than the island itself.
To finish our huge day, we headed back to Mokpo, showered and went to '대반동201'. This Cafe had an amazing view of Mokpo Bridge, and we got there right in time for sunset.
I hope you guys enjoy coming with me to Mokpo!
