Now I'm going to talk about all this festival !!

How to visit there?

1. Recommend to take a subway when you go to some place in seoul. if you don't know much about Seoul places it is good to take subway because subway has lot of information for foreigners.
 
    why : Most of bus stops are written in Korean not English, so it is absolutely difficult to find your destination. Therefore, it is much easier to take a subway to travel in Seoul.

<for us we transfer subway from the line number 2 to the line number 1 >

<If you arrived at the Jonggak station, you can find the signs >



If you want to have dinner?? you have to look for some restaurant
 
there are lot of restaurants in that area



< We went out at the exit 4 to have a dinner.
   I recommend this exit, if you want to buy something or have dinner also it leads you to the festival place>

< It took just about 2 minute to find the Market  >

<We found the lot of  food restaraunt. There were lots of restaraunts, so you can choose one>
