Early morning we woke up and directly prepare ourselves to go to the Seoraksan National Park. We went to the nearest bus station and waiting for bus 7-1 that will bring us to Seoraksan. After waiting about 10 minutes, it finally come, we almost decided to walk to walk to Seoraksan since the weather was too cold to sit quietly at the bus stop.

After we arrived at Seoraksan National Park and bought the entrance ticket, and the first thing to do was to take a picture with the symbol of Seoraksan, which is the black bear.

Then we walk to the cable car station. We came too early, even the station not yet open. So we took a look around there and pay attention to the location map.

After the station open, we found out that the locket was not yet open, so we queue in front of the ticket locket. At that time there was a group of old men who wants to go to the top of mount Seorak as well.

When we're travelling with gondola to the top of the mountain, the song that was played inside the gondola was Maps by Maroon 5. Since then, I fell for that song, hahaha..

After arrived at the higher station, we have to walk about 5 minutes to the top of the mountain. The view from there was really good. When we arrived at the top of the mountain the view was great, this peak was surrounded by other mountain's peak. Even in the high place like this, there's a photo sellers, if you want to get your picture directly printed.

We did not spend too much time at the mountain peak since there's not much to see in there. So we get back to the station and waiting for the cable car to the lower station. While waiting, we heard some tourist speak Indonesian language, it turns out some Indonesian tourist just arrived at the higher station.

Before we leave mount Seorak, we ate our breakfast at a restaurant inside the lower cable car station.
