My hometown and Summer Vacation
My hometown, Seoul, makes me happy and excited. Seoul is a very big city of in Korea. I often go to amusement parks such as Lotte World and Seoul land. When I go on the rides, I can relieve stress. It is always packed with many people. Moreover, foreign tourists always visit Myongdong and Insa-dong. It is famous for street food. Stick ice cream and Hodduk is very decilous. Seoul has a lot of sightseeing places. 63 building is the very highest building in Korea. When I go up to the 63th floor, I feel dizzy. So, we can see natural view in Seoul. When I was young, I sometimes climb Bukhan Mountain. Therefore, I always live in my hometown in the summer.
63 building
This summer vacation I went to the Youngildae beach in Pohang. I looked around the sea and heard the sea wind. That day the weather was cloudy so we were not hot. It was healing time. As soon as the exam was over, I traveled to Pohang. Pohang is my first destination on my summer vacation of the year. I go there with my university friends. After we have a good time at beach, we ate Mul-hoe. Mul-hoe is a wonderful food. It taste a little spicy, but refreshin and delicious. Unfortunately, It was expensive. Later, If I have a chance, I want to eat a lot. When I leave to Pohang, I miss it very much, because we stayed only one day at the most. I had a healing time at in Pohang.
Gyeongju is famous for its specialty food, Hawangnambread. Hwangnam Bread is a soft, light bread filled with sweet red bean paste. It was first baked in 1939 by Choi Yeong-hwa. You can buy Hwangnam bread at many shops around town, usually in boxes which can also be given as gifts. So, two weeks ago, I bought Hawangnam bread for my family before I went to my hometown. I don’t like the taste, but my family likes it. because Hwangnam bread taste very sweet. Hwangnam bread looks like Gyeongju bread so we do not get mixed.
Muk-hoe is a wonderful!!
