Today, I want to present you Nami Island. It’s a very famous place to go especially for tourists. As I went there in December, it has already been pretty cold. While we had no snow in Seoul, it was pretty white on Namiseom (남이섬). It’s because this small island is located in Gangwon-do, which is about a 2 hour ride away to the northeast of Seoul. Have a look at it on the Naver map:

It is very famous amongst couples and drama lovers. The drama called Winter Sonata has been filmed here. For reaching that island, you need to use a ferry, which operates every 30 minutes (I remember?). It takes about 15 minutes to settle over. 
The administration of Nami Island has also come up with a nice idea to create a virtual republic, enabling you to exchange yoiur Korean Won into the ír own currency and use their own stamps etc. ^^ 
The high trees together with the snow make it very appealing to go there in winter. Not only I went with my school but hundreds of Chinese and Japanese tourists as well. 
If you go straight and then to the left, there is a musical instruments museum. Apparently it showed a lot of instruments from chinese heritage. 
Outside people placed some comments on some wooden plates - very common in Korea whenever there is some kind of art going on. 
Recycable art.
