THE MOST UNUSUAL YET FUN ACTIVITIES TO DO IN KOREA😮🤩 | QUIRKY PLACES TO VISIT

 1. "POOPOO" LAND (YES YOU READ THAT RIGHT!)

Whilst the name sounds not too pleasent, Poopoo Land is actually pretty popular attraction for both Koreans and foreigners. It's a fun exhibition/museum where visitors can enjoy themselves taking photos at the "Poo Photo Zone", going through the small and large intestines of "Dynamic Digestion Maze", a maze recreated to reflect the process of digestion as visitors pass through various obstacle courses and partying out in the "Poo Party Zone", a mini poo house while dancing along tracks played by a poo jukebox. 

2. EAT LIVE OCTOPUS IN GWANGJANG MARKET

Gwangjang Market is a traditional street market in Jongno-gu, Seoul.  It is known as one of the oldest and largest traditional markets in Korea with more than 5000 shops and approximately 65,000 people visit the market each day. The food alley has more than 200 food stalls, each selling different type of Korean food including fresh-seafood, traditonal pancakes, noodles and more.

Gwangjang Market is also a popular place to try sannakji, raw octopus tentacles that wriggle and writhe on the plate. It sure will be an interesting experience!


3.  THE TRICK EYE MUSEUM

The Trick Eye Museum is a gallery that combines art paintings with "trick art techniques" and AR (Augmented Reality) technology to create 3D illusions. Instead of merely viewing paintings that are hanging in the wall, here visitors can interact with the paintings by using the Trickeye Camera app to make the paintings come alive in video recordings.



 With just one ticket, visitors get to explore each themed area and take cool pictures with the 3D paintings. It's a fun place to come with friends, children and have some laughters as well as creative photos.


4. TEMPLE STAY AT JOGYESA TEMPLE

Jogyesa Temple is the representative temple of Korean Buddhism, as it is the chief temple of the largest denomination in Korean Buddhism, the Jogye Order. Jogyesa is a practicing place in the heart of the city, while providing people with a quiet place to rest and take a break from the busy city life.

Usually temple stay program provides sanctuary from city life as well as time and space for meditation and relaxation. The 2D1N program includes meditation, 108 prostrations, tea ceremony, monastic meal offerings and more. 



5. PLAY WITH RACCOONS WHILE SIPPING ON COFFEE


Dog cafes and cat cafes are what we hear a lot so it's not surprising at all, but there is a new critter in Seoul which you can hang out with in a cafe and that's raccoon! Yup, you heard us right, RACCOONS!
In the raccoon cafe, you can order a drink and hang out with the raccoons but of course, there are some instructions on how to interact with the critters to not play too harsh with them. If you follow the instructions well, it will be a fun time  ðŸ˜„
