Cool Urban Exploration - Korea

I think some of our forum peeps have been into this - I've only been to the broken down amusement park in Geoje-do - such a surreal place...

I like to do it on my bike sometimes. I know it's not properly "Urban Exploration" in the sense you mean arachi, but I really like finding forgotten little neighborhoods in Seoul, with ancient shops and all the older-style houses clinging to the hillside with intriguing little paths and stairways between them. I just like to ride around and check them out. Some of the looks you get from older people are priceless.

Oops, forgot the link! * ^^ *

Urban Exploration

It makes me want to go check out where The Host was filmed - and that hotel with full bedding still is priceless. I would definitely pass on the mental institution that he and AltF4 got kicked out of though. Creeeeepy.

Seriously PDKL, buying a (sexy) bike, even a cheap one, is a quality investment in Korea - there's so much to see and it beats walking.

This looks like fun. I was slated to go to the mental institution wit them but was feeling like caca that morning and passed.

I really hope I get to see that abandoned amusement park before I leave, I heard it was slated for destruction. How about a yeogiyo class trip?
