Tongyeong-Oyester Beach

Image
Just drive on the sides emart to a small street we found the oyester beach. Tongyeong is actually an exporter for the oyesters all over Korea and as well as near-by countries and also to USA. Generaly as I read, oyster is very much like milk for it contains balanced nutritious substances. Oysters is a nourishing food, rich in vitamins A, B, C, and D and iron. Oysters cultured in the clean sea of Tongyeong have been rated as having the best quality in the world by the FDA of the United States. Domestic and foreign exports of oysters contribute to the development of the regional economy. An oyster is easy to digest for all ages specially, it offers rich calcium in a form to absorb fast. Its good for long drives. You can experience the oyesters and collect some also.

Geoje: Boating with Duck-boats

Another summer adventure in Geoje is boating with the duck boats. Its a fun place. In summer-time its occupied and heavily crowded. You might have to stand in the queue, but you might get the chance soon to enjoy it. The boat is generally for two people, they give the life jackets and its well controlled.  Also it has a small fountain in the miidle of the sea. Its beautiful, midst of the mountains.  You can also enjoy the coffee and food at the Dive Resturant.

Tongyeong Tower, Revolving resturant, Bon-Appetite, Geoje

 We went for a short ride to discover Tongyeon tower, so we drove from Geoje to Tongyeon. It was a fun trip with a good lunch at Tongyeon tower.  Once we reached the place we need to take a small tunnel under the bridge/ highway to reach to the tower. Inside the tower, first take an elevator to the top of the top. At the terrace enjoy the beautiful view of the city and bridge beside and the ocean.  On the fifth floor(just re-confirm) there is a revolving resturant named Bonappetit, serving good Italian food with a number of wines. The pizzas are really good. You will really love the view outside the window while enjoying the meal in a revolving resturant. Surely worth a visit, further you can make a visit to emart or lotte mart to shop.

We started our journey in the morning at 6am and reached the Boseong Daehan Dawon tea plantation at 9am. The place so beautiful with lovely view. Great place to get beautiful pictures. The best part was all the resturants have food, tea, coffee and ice-cream with green tea. The ice-cream and shake was so fresh. I could taste the real green tea. Also the green tea is famous for its numerous advantages as it has anti-oxidants. I bought the tea and green tea chocolate. It was fun to be there. The number of green tea plantations in the region, set on a hillside with rows and rows of green tea bushes were just amazing. Really a scenic view! The yummy ice-cream and shake is a must try!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We just loved it.   Website for more info Damyan Bamboo forest just amazed us with the beauty.
