A Visit to Seoul Grand Park

I should have posted this sooner as we went last month but I've been busy with extra work. Seoul Grand Park is an impressive place with a massive zoo, amusement park, gardens, and an IT world. We only had time for the zoo.

This is the largest zoo that I can recall going to. The zoo is at the far end of the park so you take a ski lift to get there. The ski lift day pass is $11.00 and the zoo itself is $3.00. Truly amazing price for the animals on display. Apparently another zoo in Korea is even better called Everland. Everland is a Safari kind of zoo.

Anyway, I went with some new teachers from school and we spent most of the day.


This is the ski lift area.

Jessica and Adam in the lift or is it called a car ahead of us.

The amusement park in the distance.

This is part of the gardens. The place was just too big to cover all the parts of the park.

I selected the wrong photo but it takes too long to fix so here is a picture of a baby hippo. He or She is under water.

Pictures of animals will follow - umm if I remember. Don't worry I have them all on my computer and both my hard drives -- when I get back to Canada I'll have em all to bore you all with.
