Sarah97's new South Korea page

<font face="Verdana" color="Green" size="2.7"><b>I LOVE KOREA.</b> It will be natural for me to say that. ^ ^

I have been travelling many places but Korean landscape is very much unique. Especially if you love mountain climbing or trekking, you should try to climb one of our beautiful mountains. 70% of our land is mountains so there are so many beautiful mountains in all over Korea. Seol-ak-mountain is my favorite but there will be many people who names other mountains as their favorites. Even in Seoul there are 2 famous Pukhan-san and Dobong-san. Korean mountains are rather petite and very cute. It's not too big but it has many faces. You would see what I mean if you go there.

If you like the beach and want to relax, then go to Cheju Island. This is located in the southern sea. You can see the palm trees and nature is very much well reserved. Once my Swiss boss told me that Cheju is like a Hawaii. It has a mountain in the middle, beautiful sand beaches and 2 coral beaches, Forest, unique shaped small nearby islands such as U-do & Marado, Sugnsan sunrise peak and Ghost road.

Besides the beautiful nature, we have 5000 years history. So, you can enjoy our traditions very much different from yours. In picture, I am wearing Korean traditional costume, Hanbok. However usually Hanbok is more colorful and beautiful. Try to wear that when you are in Korea. I saw one cafe in Itaewon, famous Shopping street near the US army base, where you can try to wear Hanbok. I will let you know once I find out the place!

Well, let me introduce our beautiful land. I will keep update it whenever I can so visit here from time to time to see what has been added. Thank you for your visit and you are seeing me wearing Hanbok before the Gukak(Korean traditional music) concert. I have learned Gayagum for 2 years for fun. And it sounds so wonderful.

Here I have uploaded Silent Night & Holy Night played with Korean traditional orchestra (Kukak). Enjoy the Korean flavouring X-mas sound..
