Beautiful Gyeongju!

Gyeongju is a very ancient city in S.Korea where you are able to experience nature at its best during springtime when flowers bloom...also many temples for buddhas were built here and many kings were buried here as the first picture shows, they look like hills..this is where you want to come if you want to see a more tradiotional Korea!!












Namsan Mtn.




This is Namsan Mountain in Seoul..hiking day with the girls! The picture where we have the tree with the white flowers, they bloom on the first two weeks of spring all over the city, they're called "cherry blossoms"..and after the two weeks the flowers fall out and the leaves start to grow..it's a pretty cool thing:)!
