the AM class of students was really pushing Andong- a place I've always intended to visit, but never got around to. They said Gyeong ju is more like a park, and Andong is more like a trip back in time. ( Okay- it's what they tried to say, anyway)

Andong is nice I hear. I'd go during the mask festival in August or September.


Summer vacation is coming up. Just wonder what you all are planning to do, inside Korea that is.

[just because]

My suggestions

Jeju (been twice and it is a nice island)

Heainsa temple near Daegu ( the best and most scenic major one in the country - a little hard to get to by bus but worth it, also has the Tripitaka).

West Coast islands

Any number of mountains

Just a few suggestions.

Did a weekend trip rafting last weekend. Near a place call ��ö�� (sin cheol won) There are a ton of outfits near there. However if you are without a car taxi's would be rather expensive to get where you want to go. If you do have a car or rent one for the weekend. There are tons of places to stay outside of the town in penshuns. Anyway a great weekend and the river for rafting is one of the most beautiful in Korea. (in my opinion) I think you can book daytrips from Seoul through most travel agencies. Happy Travels

Also, The worst place I have ever been. Chebudo. What a hell hole. Nothing really scenic to see. Don't wast your time. You can get good seafood in Seoul. No need to venture all that way.
