If you wish to experience a futuristic city with fashionable people but yet traditionally inclined to live with some palaces and temples situated in the center of the metro, then you should go to Seoul. Together with five other officemates and friends of Timex Philippines, we enjoyed a short yet sweet and cold stay last weekend in Seoul, South Korea. It was then very memorable with the help of Oppo F3 Smartphone which lasted very strong even in a negative temperature weather.

For me, Seoul is more than just k-pop. Aside from the world-famous Korean Pop fever, South Korea has a lot to offer to all Tourists and Locals most especially in the 5th most populous city in the world, Seoul. For the first time, I was thrilled to witness a number or thousands of ice crystals as they fell down in the warm soil of the earth. Snow is different from rain for some various reasons. I agree with Kahlil Gibran, "Snow beautifies everything it covers". And that's how Seoul became magical to me.

Our subway ride deserved a selfie

With our 3-day stay in Seoul, It seemed that I lived there for a week already. We stayed at DH Myeongdong Guesthouse which is by the way very hospital and accommodating. They got free breakfast and can assist you to wherever you're planning to visit. The hostel is just a 10-15 minute walk going to Myeongdong Subway station so the commute is not a problem. And of course, a picture paints a thousand words so I'm presenting to you some amazing and magical photos of Seoul.

While my friends' smartphones went dead during our cold stay in Seoul, my very own Oppo F3 did a very good job. It was our source of selfies, groufies and even panorama and landscape photos. It is indeed a recommended phone. So, here are some Magical shots taken by Oppo F3 in all our Seoul Destinations.

HOW TO GO TO NAMI ISLAND FROM MYEONGDONG (src: myeongdong.org)

The journey from Myeongdong Station to Gapyeong Station where Nami Island is located will take about 1 hour 30 minutes. As you need to change train line 3 times for this trip, it is not advisable to sleep or take a nap during this trip or you may miss the stations to change line.

With that said, let's get started with the journey to Nami Island:

1. From Myeong-dong Station, take LINE 4 train heading to the direction of Chungmuro Station to get to Dongdaemun History & Culture Park Station.
2. When arriving at Dongdaemun History & Culture Park Station, change to LINE 2 and take the train heading towards Sindang Station to get to Wangsimni Station.
3. When arriving at Wangsimni Station, change to JUNGANG LINE and take the train heading towards Cheong-nyangni to get to Mangu Station.
4. When arriving at Mangu Station, change to KYEONGCHUN LINE and take the train heading towards Galmae Station to get to Gapyeong Station, which is our destination.
