Enjoying Nature and the City

In the early morning, we departed from the bustling Myeongdong area and took the subway to Seoul Forest in Seongdong-gu. This oasis in the heart of Seoul is a city park that blends nature and art. As soon as we stepped into the park, the fresh scent of grass and trees greeted us, instantly making us feel relaxed. We strolled along the Maple Tree Avenue, enjoying the dappled sunlight filtering through the trees. Inside the park, there is a small deer garden where the gentle deer attract many visitors who stop to feed them, with children's laughter echoing all around. At noon, we chose to rest at an outdoor café in the park, savoring a cup of hand-drip coffee and waffles, while the crisp chirping of birds made us feel like we were in a paradise. In the afternoon, we visited the design hall located in a corner of the park to admire the exhibitions of local artists, experiencing the charm of Seoul not only in its natural beauty but also in its cultural creativity. In the evening, we returned to the city center to Dongdaemun Design Plaza, where the modern architecture adorned with lights and the bustling night market provided a stark contrast, giving our day's itinerary a multi-layered experience.
