|
|
The weather looks like it's going to be okay, so I'm planning to head down to Yeosu for the Expo on Friday and/or Saturday. I figure a few people on here probably went for the opening weekend, so I've got a couple of questions maybe you can answer.
1) I know there's a ticket site where you can buy tickets online. However, as I haven't decided if I'm going for one day or two, do you know if tickets at the door are the same price? I assume the advantage to buying online is not having to line up to purchase tickets, but I'd prefer to just buy mine when I get there.
2) Are there any lockers or left luggage facilities? As I'm going to be away from home for the weekend, I'll have a backpack with my stuff in it that I'd rather not have to carry with me through the Expo. I assume they'd have some, but maybe they don't due to security concerns.
3) Any must-see pavilions for a non-Korean? If I only go for a day, I'd like to make sure I see a couple of the really good ones, and then some that are less popular with Koreans.
Thanks |

Sorry, I can't answer any of your questions, but here's something that might interest you. If you take the KTX from Seoul AND purchase your ticket for EXPO at the train station, you can get 30% off the KTX ticket. I read this in a newspaper, and just called the tourist information center to confirm it. They
might be able to help you with other questions on ticket prices - the number
is 1330.

The article also said that many seniors were not impressed with having to wait in line for more than an hour to buy tickets, as they did not know how to purchase them online. Perhaps that was for the opening weekend - but you might want to save the hassle of a long wait on a weekend and get your ticket it advance. |
