^san daw recommended nya sis?

questions pala  :

1. yun airport bus (airport to myeongdong), pwede ba T-Money ipambayad dun?
2. magkano dapat i-load sa T-Money kung eto ang mga nakaline up puntahan for 3 days?
   - palace (gyeongbokgung/changdeokgung), bukchon hanok village, N Seoul Tower
   - everland
   - petite france + nami

[foruiz]

^you can use T-money for the airport bus sis.

[CebuGem]

@lakwatsa if you're going to pay using T-money for airport bus, you should load at least 20,000KRW. Airport bus fare is around 12,000KRW (i think), so that leaves 8,000KRW for the rest of the 3 days. Just add load of minimum 3,000KRW if necessary.

[lakwatsa]

thanks mga sis. 

^sis 10k krw daw yun airport bus to myeongdong. so may 10k pa kong matitira. tama ba 2500 yun T-Money Card tapos papaload ako ng 20k KRW so bale 22500 ang ibabayad ko?

[foruiz]

^yes sis.that is correct.wala akong nakitang tmoney pass plus kaya I got the regular tmoney card for 2500 na lang.may discount for tourist daw kasi ang pass plus variant pero 3000 ang price.

[lakwatsa]

^thank you sis!

yun pass plus, may expiry ba sya o parang regular t-money lang din na walang expiry? kaso parang binayaran mo lang din yun discounts ha 2500 vs 3000 hehe

[Serena.]

^sis FORUIZ, what is T-Money Pass Plus? Anong difference nya sa regular one? Nacurious ako sa discount na nabanggit mo hehe.

Pang 3 days ko na today dito sa Seoul 
love na love ko talaga dito 

sis lakwatsa, may pedestrian line dito papuntang Namsan Guesthouse 3, sa mismong tapat ng Tous Les Jours, mula sa Sejong Hotel (last stop ng airport bus), lakad ng konti then TLJ na, dun yung pedestrian line.

Pero gumagawa na sila ng escalator sa Myeong-dong station, sayang di pa gawa 
pero kung super bigat ng dala mo, mas advisable pa din talaga mag airport bus.

Pwede din credit card mag pay ng ticket for airport bus, 10,000won ang fare.

Ang lamig lamig na dito, grabe humahangin na sa lamig, winter na winter na talaga 

[lakwatsa]

^thank you sa update sis esor! sabi na e di updated si naver at google maps hehe.

 enjoy your stay dyan

Sis Serena., this is from the KTO website re: T-money Pass Plus: "Seoul City Pass Plus is a transportation card with the T-money function and additional tourist benefits, which can be used in and around Seoul. The benefits include monetary transactions at four ancient royal palaces (Gyeongbokgung, Changdeokgung, Changgyeonggung, and Deoksugung), Jongmyo Shrine, as well as many convenience stores. The card also offers 5% off rides on Seoul City Tour Bus, and other discounts at dozens of tourist sites and shops including exhibitions, restaurants, opticians’ and beauty salons"

[Serena.]

^i see Pass Plus na lang kukuhanin ko sis. 500 lang naman ang difference sa Regular one. Thanks for the info sis!

[theflygirl]

Flying to ICN on Mabuhay Class on PR today. Happy sad cos even though I'll be spending some [textspeak!] with the hubby, leaving with a heavy heart cos of the kids. As usual. Hehe. AND for the first time, I'll be arriving with no itin at all. Done most of the obligatory touristy places. Just time to relax and enjoy SoKor for a few days. Safe travels to all!

[Serena.]

^sis BATGIRL07, Tama ba ang na-search ko na malapit lang sya sa Nami Island? Kasi kung ganon, isasabay ko na lang sana sya sa Nami Island namin para hindi sayang sa transpo. What bothers me is yung pabalik sa Seoul. Does it have fixed time or pwede kang bumalik sa Seoul anytime you want? Pano kayo bumalik sa seoul sis?

[cheskacutie]

Mga sis! May pede bang mag share ng itinerary? Malayo ba yung Lotte world and Hello Kitty cafe ba yun sa Myeongdong? waaah! 

Thanks!

[merian]

^Nasa Hongdae area ang Hello Kitty Cafe. Medyo malayo siya from Lotte World, sa may Jamsil ang Lotte World.

[yayie]

[CebuGem]

^it will probably snow any day next week. the temp is getting lower, nag negative na nga at night time.

[batgirl07]

sis serena check ur inbox

[lischan]

@is batgirl07: Aw gawsh naman, meron palang open na ski resort? Sinabihan kasi ako na Yongpyong lang ang open na resort and not advisable to go daw if all of us will not ski coz mahal at malayo. The agency was going to charge us 100k per pax to go there. Hay sayang, was so looking forward to play with snow pa naman 

Just got back from Seoul this morning and miss ko na weather dun. Sobrang init naman kasi dito, ano ba yan...
