1 day
Full Day
About this activity
Meet your coordinator at your preferable location among 3 picking up points in downtown Seoul(3 subway stations, Hongik Univ., Meyongdong, Dongdaemun History & Culture Park). After about 2 and half hours, you will arrive at Woljeongsa Temple.
Woljeongsa Temple is the site of Seongbo Museum, displaying artifacts and treasures from Buddhist culture of the Goryeo Dynasty, including a nine-story octagonal pagoda, also called as the Sari-Pagoda (relic pagoda), and a Stone Seated Buddha figure. Also there is the Jeokmyeolbogung where Buddha's bones are said to be preserved, and the large sermon hall Jeokgwangjeon Pavilion.
After lunch, you will arrive at the Asia's largest green pasture, Samyang Farm. The vast meadow is where milking cows feed on the fresh, clean grass. The view from the plateau, reaching a height of 1,470 meters, is remarkable as well. If you go up to Daegwallyeong Observatory, you can see as far as Gangneung, Jumunjin, and even the East Sea beyond.
Last tour destination is Ski Jump Tower which is inside of Alpensia Resort and will be used for the ski jumping competition of the PyeongChang 2018 Winter Olympic Games. Visitors can take a monorail up to this great vantage point to view the beautiful scenery, and may also indirectly experience the thrill of ski jumping at the athletes' regular practice zone. Alpensia Resort will be a vital venue for the upcoming PyeongChang 2018 Winter Olympics, hosting sporting events such as biathlon and cross-country skiing in addition to ski jumping.
The tour will end with return to the Seoul. You can get off your preferable location on downtown Seoul(2 subway stations, Meyongdong, Dongdaemun History & Culture Park).
