Winter is here and when it comes to it, Korea has so much more to offer than just skiing. Looking for something unconventional to do this year? Wonderful has composed a list of top 10 fun activities to do this winter as well as festivals to visit:
Exploring the Korean open country has never been easier thanks to the Snow flower train. These are special train tours that travel throughout various remote parts of Korea in winter, and offer a scenic travel experience for everyone to enjoy. There are different tour routes depending on the departure city. For instance, the snow flower train tour departing from Seoul starts at 7:30 and includes visiting such attractions as Muju Gucheondong Valley, Deogyusan cable car and Garden of Sky, so lots of activities to do along the way. The train is usually back in Seoul at around 9.10pm.
Cost per person: around 90,000KRW-100,000KRW
Wondering how to beat the cold? Well you could buy a long and puffy padding coat and stay warm with ondol, or you could dive into the ocean like a polar bear!? As the name suggests the festival involves diving into ice cold water, an ice bucket challenge, shows and performances, partying and….wait for it… a dinosaur race! 🦖🦖🦖🦖
