#AustraliaFlightEvent #museum #Gyeonggi-doTravel #Gyeonggi-doMuseum #DomesticTravel #MuseumTravel #TimeTravel After finishing my tour on the afternoon of April 2nd, I spent some peaceful time at the entrance and park of Gyeonggi-do Museum!! The huge modern sculpture at the entrance of the museum left a strong first impression, and the combination of glass and iron caught my eye as it sparkled in the light. ㅎㅎ The sound of water flowing softly from the stepped wave sculpture calmed my mind!! 📌 Points for solo travelers Recommended spots: Entrance photo zone → Take emotional photos with abstract sculptures in the background Hidden spot: "Grass Hill" deep in the park → A quiet space for reading books under the shade of trees Recommended snacks: Nearby "Park Cafe" → Hand-drip coffee and homemade cookies (6,500 won) 🚨 Notes Entrance sculptures are even more beautiful when lit up at night → Recommended to visit at sunset There may be ants and bugs on the grass hill, so bring a mat The cafe closes at 5 p.m., so hurry As I walked along the cherry blossom path in the park and followed the flower petals fluttering in the spring breeze, my stress was washed away!! I was sitting on a bench and writing my diary on my laptop, and a squirrel playing next to me looked at me with curious eyes. Haha, it was so cute!! It was lovely to see families feeding ducks around the pond!!

Haha. It was nice to have my name written on the digital public record board at the end of the exhibition hall, and it made me feel like a Joseon official!

#AustraliaFlightEvent #museum #Gyeonggi-doTravel #Gyeonggi-doYongin Yesterday afternoon, I experienced the region's historical changes vividly at the Gyeonggi Museum's Gyeonggi Changes exhibition.
