Things to do in Kangwon-do, S.Korea | 2015 Wow Korea Supporters (Day 1)

So I joined the wow Korea supporters program and honestly, it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. So basically, it's a program where a bunch of foreigners would travel to different places in Korea that are not as famous as Jeju island and then we would have to write articles and post update about the trip on Facebook.
 
So if you are a foreign student in Korea and you want to travel for free (since students are usually broke), be sure to check out the wow Korea supporter Facebook page right HERE!

So for the first trip, we all went to Kangwon-do (강원도) and it is basically one of the best place to go if you ever want to have a relaxing and yet fun getaway. 




Day 1

Our trip started off in Wonju in the Museum SAN. It's basically a museum/art gallery. Even the architecture is amazing and they actually took 7 years to complete the construction.

In museum SAN you can see exhibitions by James Turrell. His artworks basically inspired the videography for the movie Interstellar. And his art works beau ally involves light and space. It's pretty amazing. Unfortunately you are not allowed to take any photos.

There is also the Hanji (Korean paper) exhibition and it is pretty cool to see how artistes embrace their culture and make art works based on it.

After that we travelled to Sokcho where we had fried fritters at the Daepo Harbour located in Sokcho.

 

 
The grandma (할머니) that was working there was sooo kind to us.

That night, I slept with a full stomach :) So satisfied!
