It was a wonderful place where you can feel the history of Korea. Even though it was winter, the snow scenery was beautiful, and even the ponds and rivers were frozen, so you could see how people lived in the past. It's a little inconvenient to visit, so it's difficult to go, but next time I'd like to go when the summer flowers are beautiful.

The team leader was very responsible. He contacted me via what's app one day early and taught us how to download the Everland app. And as soon as you arrive at the first stop of the park, you can skip the queue and go directly to Panda World to visit the pandas🐼. The arrangement is very good👍🏻There are meal coupons that can be exchanged for hot food. When the gathering time is up, the team leader will pick you up at the designated place~Recommend Zoo topia. Be sure to win. time to go
