Day 2 - Seoul Korea Autumn
On 2nd day, we planned to go to nami Island , Petite France and Gangchon Rail Bike . We didnt mange to go Petite France because when we reached to Nami island , it was raining and we planned to stay longer time in Nami Islant . When no more rain then took pictures and walking around. So, we stayed about almost half day then go to Gangchon Rail Bike.
Then went back to Myeongdong and visit around.
1) Nami Island
Wake up early morning like 5 :30 am and go to metro Yongsan Station. From Yongsan Station, you have to buy ITX train ticket to Gapyeong Station. It will take about 1 hour plus . ITX is the high speed train. You have to buy a separate ticket from the ticket counter or ticket machine .
When reach to Gapyeong Station, you can ask people to take taxi and share the taxi fare ( it is more cheaper as well) . It is save the time and faster way to go to the Nami island station .
Either way , you can take the Gapyeong Tour bus.
For Gapyeong Tour Bus , you can pay the bus fees 6000 won for unlimited ride for a day.
You can view as below for details .

We didnt know that it will take time about 2 hours and the final destination is far away from Metro train station. When we reached to the ending point place. There is no train station nearby. It will take about 20 mins to walk to the train station. Quite straight forward , turn left to the road and walking all the way till the end and you may see the right side ( there is a train station). I forgot the train station name lolz!!!
Below pictures are the ending stop. You had to alight there and then turn left and go straight to the main road. You have to walk around 20 mins then you can see the train station at the right side.
