Suwon Tour was fun and I really enjoyed our tour guide, Andrew's insights. He explained the history of the Hwaseong Fortress in a very fun manner and was very knowledgeable also. His explanation at the Wawujeongsa Temple was also very interesting and he took some amazing pictures at the Starfield Library. In respect of the tour, the itinerary is not very extensive and its a good trip if you want a slow but productive day. We started at 8am and were back by 5pm.

This is most satisfying for me by far. It is just few steps away from the train station. It has a convenience store nearby. And a local restaurant beside the hotel that serves a legit korean bbf and kimchi stew. The hotel serves free coffee and water. It has an elevator. And the ahjusshi at the reception was very nice. He even allowed us to extend our check out time for two hours. The room was spacious and what we loved about is it has a full vanity mirror. Suwon is such a best place to stay for at least 2days. So I highly recommend to book a stay in this hotel. It’s very cheap and yet the service is superb. I will definitely come back here. Thanks again! More powers 🫶🏻
