24 April 2017 - Banpo Hangang Park

Heading out to Banpo Hangang Park from Sinbanpo Station, exit 1.




 

 
Ooohhhh!!
Canola flower fields!!
It will be so pretty here in May when the flowers bloom ^^
More Canola flower fields!




Sinbanpo Station, exit 1.
Can't remember how long I took to reach the park.
I think less than 15mins?

24 April 2017 - Boring place

Came to check out this new place, Understand Avenue.
This place reminds me of Commonground
I thought Commonground was kinda boring but this place was more boring..
Maybe becos it was newly open when I went there and there were still some empty shop spaces.

So cute ^^
These are real plants and need just a teaspoon of water every fortnight.
The salegirl told me they will grow but so far mine have not grow :(
I think I have not been watering it diligently..







I searched for popular eating places in Understand Avenue and Bistro Hive looks like a popular choice among the locals. 
Unfortunately, it was closed for breaktime when I was there at around 3pm.



I think it would be more fruitful to check out this place together with a trip to Seoul Forest since they are next to each other.  
Nearest station for Understand Avenue & Seoul Forest is Seoul Forest Station, exit 3.

24 April 2017 - Hang-dong Railroad & Pureun Arboretum

 Making my way to Hang-dong Railroad & Pureun Arboretum.  
Cheonwang Station, exit 3.
Exit 2 is fine too.
Hang-dong Railroad as shown by the blue marker and Pureun Arboretum circled in red.
The railway is there as shown by the arrow.
Hang-dong Railroad was once busy with industrial transport, is now a destination for the locals in family outings and date course for couples. The single-line railroad was completed in 1959 by KG Chemical to move raw material and products.





I did not continue further but I checked out the Pureun Arboretum instead. 
Pureun Arboretum














Out from the Pureun Arboretum and ready to head back. 


I was tempted to check out the hiking trail but decided to give up becos I need to rush off.
Next time perhaps.
Another hiking trail.

Okie its time to go back!
I will come back for the hiking trails if I have the chance ^^
