Busan-Gwangju Part 3

It's about time to talk about Gwangju (Finally),
Yea.
#Chasingautumnfallfoliage
 πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’— 

First we made our way to Gwangju, 
 #howdoyougothere
Find your way to Busan Seobu Intercity Bus Terminal, for us we took subway from Nampo station and alight at Sasang Station (Busan Subway Line No.1) Exit 5 - Terminal Bus just at the back of station.

 Note that there are two type of ticketone cost 15,200won (twice a day) and another type is 21,200won (more frequent), if you want to save some cost check out on the schedule on the website.
It took almost 3 and half hours to arrive Gwangju with 15min stop in thhe middle of your way, so tired anyway.

 Enjoy the scenery.

When we reached Gwangju Bus station, we grabbed some lunch at Lotteria and trying to fugure out our way to our hostel. The google maps here in Gwangju really did not help much. It kept making us walked around the same place all over again. So we decided to asked around, went in to the station bus again looking for information counter. We desperately needed someone who can speak in English πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

Next to Gwangju Bus Station is Shinsagea Shopping Mall & e Mart next to it. If you find your hostel check in time is not as normal hours - like our case it was on 6pm πŸ˜ͺ put all your stuff at the lockers and spare some money for shopping hahaa..

The colours of leaves have changed here compare to Busan! So excited to go to Naejangsan Park the next day. That was the purposed we came all the way to Gwangju actually, we wanted to visit Naejangsan Park to see the autumn fall foliage. 


Breeze of Cold. 

Anyway, we decided to find the nearest subway station - you actually have to walk further from the bus station to find one. Headed our way to Daein Market λŒ€μΈμ‹œμž₯, but most of street shop here close on Sunday #whatadissapointment. 
#Howdoyougetthere  Daein Market λŒ€μΈμ‹œμž₯
 Take Subway Line 1 to Geumnamno4(sa)-Ga
My apologise, couldn't remembered which exit that we took but I'm sure it written on the direction signage at the station. Take a good look.

 #update! Found You - Take Exit 4 to Daien Market


Daien Market was open 24hours on Saturday, maybe that was the reason most of the stalls closed on Sunday #okaygivethemabreakNona πŸ˜‚
Despite of that we still enjoyed it and managed to grab some fresh Kimchi and fruits as well.

Entrance.

After a long bus tripped and walked around the town, damn we walked a lots! Most of the time we found ourselves lost Hahaa.
So finally it was about time to check in! Finally.
-Time to have some rest- and yes no night out today, I didn't think that any of us have the energy to do so. And the temperature here in Gwangju is freaking cold. Colder than busan.
