We went to an artsy fartsy area of Seoul called Hyehwa it is a really neat neighbourhood full of restaurants and theatre related buildings including a Jazz school and some university's.
The fancy, way too expensive but really frickin good Italian restaurant we ate at! This is the top floor and it's an all around cool building, trees inside like this one and the whole outside walls are covered in Ivy! We had a "special pizza" and homemade pasta $40 bucks later and we were full....A place to go back to when were rich!
A Street in Hyehwa
My camera's firework option LOLThe Hangang river is the major river that divides up Seoul. We were having some frosty beverages and enjoying the fireworks in the +36 degree heat. People buy fireworks in the 7-11 store along the river and fire em off toward the river.
A view of one of hundreds of bridges crossing the river....This one is pre fireworks and the view from the 7-11
First time I saw one of these!
Random statue of that dude from that movie, you know the one!
I like statues, but they're pretty quiet.
The night market
The two sides of the street and the surrounding area come alive at night with vendors selling everything under the sun! We took a stroll through last night and I bought flip flops for $10 bucks!
In between races before Ms D won the cash!
Outside the expensive but good Italian restaurant...again with the statues LOL
Me gettin artsy at the Wa Bar
And they're off
Of course I found a beer castle!
Outside the lounge at the horse track see the haze from the smokers there is 5 floors like this in total I'm guessing 30,000 people go to the races on any givin day
Itaewon "little America" I have a love hate relationship with this place. You can get everything you need there from America, like food or bigger size clothes, however it smells dirty and is pretty gross. It is over run by American military and migrate workers from every country you can think of. I had the pleasure of walking up "hooker hill" the other night, basically these trashy women have garage doors on 10x10 rooms and they stand out in front of em and try to reel in clients!
Funny food sign at the bullet train terminal which by the way I have not got to ride one yet but there supposed to go 300km/hour!Women here have there own parking spots as indicated by pink lines. Why you ask??? well than they don't have to walk as far in they're high heels
.....yes I'm serious!
This is Me and MsD happy on a super packed bus on our way to the river
