11.11.2023 – Everland Resort Park

Waking up early in the morning at 6 am, took a 2-hour bus/subway ride in the coldest weather....It was worth the trip!!!!! During the weekends many people with their families would come to Everland to see the popular pandas, Fu Bao (daughter) and Le Bao (father) (rec: do come on weekdays instead). There are also the famous twin baby pandas, Rui bao and Hui bao, however, they are being taken care of inside by the mother, Ai bao. When going to this park, me and my friends expected to wait in long lines due to not having the Q-pass (express pass) because it was expensive. But some of the rides we were able to get on included T-express (roll coaster), Pirate ship, bumper cars, marigold round, etc. Throughout the morning to night, the park also hosts parades, live shows, and fireworks as well. One last thing I do recommend is that because you are a foreign student, it is best to go with your friends, take the bus early back home or else you will fight with other Korean people taking public transport (around 7pm would be good), do try their snacks, and make sure if your going in November or December to bring your puffers/hot packs (get chilly during the night).
