Started off our day with the legendary Macs ahaha.
(Try this!!! It's only available in Korea)
Our first stop was N Seoul Tower (N μμΈνμ), also known as Namsan Tower. To get here via train, just alight at Myeongdong station and take exit 3. Walk for about 15 minutes along the street at the right side of Pacific Hotel and you should see the boarding place!!
Mom looking happy despite the long arduous uphill journey
Some photos I took while on the cable car! The ride was only about 3 minutes so there wasn't much to see >(
Once you alight near the tower you see many railings filled with colourful locks!! One is sold for around $5 - $10 depending on the size.
The famous N Seoul Tower!! Apparently you have to pay to go up but we didn't cause we weren't really interested.
An act photo as requested by mom HAHA.
Mom taught me how to act too
We went around to explore and found this great spot that overlooks Seoul's cityscape
After about 2 hours exploring N Seoul Tower, we took the cable car back and went to find lunch.
Stopped by GS25, a convenience store and got this SUPER cute minion chocolate milk!!!
Obviously tasted like normal choco milk la but the bottle is to die for
Had our second fried chicken meal for lunch at Two Two Chicken! Super delicious hehe it was much better than the first fried chicken restaurant we ate at.

6-4 Namsandong 2(i)-Ga, Jung-gu, Seoul
Next, we took the train to Ewha Woman's University station. It's a typical shopping street that sells lots of accessories, bags, shoes and clothes.
The university is really pretty and gives off European vibes
We shopped until it was dark and made our way to the most renowned ginseng chicken restaurant in Seoul, Tosokchon. It's located at Gyeongbokgung Palace station.
The whole restaurant is designed like a palace and it's interior resembles a hanok (Korean traditional house). Meaning, we sat on the floor without chairs ahaha it was overall a fresh experience.
Ginseng Chicken Soup – 15,000 won ($18)
Ginseng Black Chicken Soup – 22,000 won ($26)
Seafood Pancake
Lastly, we visited Lotte Mart located at Seoul station to shop for snacks and tidbits. The place doesn't only sell food but also many skincare products. There's even a Daiso inside!!
LOL found this quite funny
Cute thing about Lotte Mart was they provided tapes and boxes for us tourists to pack the stuff we bought so that it was easier to handle at the airport.
