# Korea Hike - Hwaseong Fortress Trail

by Meow

My bf and I stopped by Suwon during our last Korea trip.
Honestly, I did not WOW-ed by the Hwaseong Fortress.
I preferred Japanese castle / temple more.
However, it was not bad for a hike after we consumed tons of Korean food.

We began our hike here.
It was a rather simple trail.

We arrived the top of the mountain within 30 mins.
All we could see was a nice view of the city of Suwon.

The Hwaseong Fortress is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and it was the only remaining walled fortress in Korea.

The trail was well-built and we had a pleasant walk.

Hope you enjoy my short sharing.
If you would like to drop by the fortress, it is just a 30-min-train-distance from Seoul.
All you need is to online reserve your train ticket or you can even buy your ticket at Seoul Station.
See you soon!

XOXO,

# Lake District Break [1]

by Meow

I kept these pictures since 2017 spring 🙈
Ever since my PC was down, I switched to Mac and I was too lazy to access the old pictures...
The Lake District was such a beautiful place and I missed the place so much.
This post is dedicated to my beloved memory, to remind me of this amazing corner on mother Earth.

We went there in January 2017.
The disadvantage was definitely the light; it turned dark after 4:30pm.
Also, it was quite chilly especially while we toured around the lake.
Luckily, it was sunny during our stay.

Our itinary:
1. Check in our AirBnb in Windermere
2. Visit the Castlerigg Stone Circle
3. Walk to Keswick
4. Lunch
5. Tour around the lake - Derwentwater
6. Return to Windermere for dinner and rest

More information for our trip:
1. Bus transport within the district: link
2. The Airbnb we stayed; 5 mins to the train station, decent place: link

First stop: Castlerigg Stone Circle

We took the bus no.555 to the station Chestnut Hill Opp Nether Place, Brigham.
Then we walked towards the stone circle.

The stone circle in Bath is always in my bucket list but the train tickets are always super expensive.
Castlerigg Stone Circle is a smaller circle but still stunning enough for me.
