Our first stop was Petite France, with the option of choosing between Petite France and Italian Village. Most people in our group chose Petite France, probably because it's featured in many Korean dramas and variety shows. This place is incredibly photogenic on a clear day! Every picture is a masterpiece. Our second stop was Gangchon Rail Bike. At this time of year, they've planted a section of pink muhly grass for photos, which is absolutely gorgeous, and you don't have to go to the Sky Park! 😆 The rail bike ride is quite fast downhill, and at this time of year, the wind can get quite chilly 🥶, so remember to bring a hat, gloves, and scarf (I regret not bringing any). Our third stop was the highlight, Nami Island. We were hoping to see the autumn leaves turn red, but only a few were actually red; most weren't yet! However, a large area of ginkgo leaves had turned yellow. There were many tourists, and since we went on a weekend, it was almost impossible to take photos without people in them… For those planning to go, be sure to avoid weekends! Aside from some minor traffic congestion, most of the sightseeing and lunch arrangements went smoothly throughout the trip! Lunch was Chuncheon spicy stir-fried chicken (a standard dish on Nami Island tours). Many thanks to our tour guide, Ms. Hwa! 🫶감사합니다
