Overview
This was a mix work and fun trip. I always love going to Japan and Korea, especially for the wonderful food delicacies.
Day 1 Itinerary
Places visited: Maple Tree House Itaewon
Maple Tree House Itaewon
This is a well known Korean bbq chain in Seoul. You can get different quality grades of meat. Not the best I’ve had but solid all around.
Day 2 Itinerary
Places visited: Steam Locomotive at Jangdan Station of the Gyeongui Line - DMZ The 3rd Infiltration Tunnel - Dora Observatory - Dorasan Station
Steam Locomotive at Jangdan Station of the Gyeongui Line
This was a fun trip to see the DMZ which has become very touristy.
DMZ The 3rd Infiltration Tunnel
The tunnel was a long walk down. It was relatively crowded so we had to stay in a queue. It got quite tight in certain spots. Would not recommend for those slightly claustrophobic!
Dora Observatory
Dorasan Station
I loved seeing this station as it felt a little surreal. A nice western looking train station linked to a crazy repressive country that is North Korea.
Places visited: Shangri-La Hotel, Tokyo - 松栄 六本木店 -Matsue Roppongi-
Shangri-La Hotel, Tokyo
