Never Ever Land

Though that the dream where you can be forever kid only exists in your dreams or movies, but there is a place in the middle of the mountains in beautiful Gyeonggi province where you can feel young again, at least for a day!
 

From Seoul to Everland

 
Getting there was surprisingly easy. You can take various busses that will take you the shuttlebus stop place. However if your Korean is still shaky there is an even easier way. Take the subway Transfer to Yongin Ever Line at Giheung Station on Bundang Line!  It takes 30 minutes from Giheung Station to Jeondae Everland Station (last stop) on Yongin Ever Line. You can take the shuttle bus (free of charge) from Yongin Ever Line and go to Everland or Caribbean Bay. Ever Line operation hours 05:30~23:30
 

Attractions



With the parks long opening hours  (10 to 10 on weekdays and 10 till 11 on friday and saturday) you have plenty of time to explore the different parts of the park. One of my favorites is ZooTopia with attractions such as the lost valley safari adventure where you can learn and experience how to coexist with approximately 150 unique animal species from inside the safety of specialized convertible amphibian vehicles  



More a fan of wild rides? Everland has got you covered as well. My all time favorite is the T-Express, which is the steepest ride in the world with a stop speed of 104 m per hour at a 77-degree angle.  However a close second is the Rolling X-train, an exciting, super-fast roller coaster with spiral oblique rotations resembling twisted breadsticks and two complete 360-degree loop-to-loop sections.
 

For the drama lovers

Not a fan of crazy rides but you are a fan or Korean dramas, movies and kpop? I already introduced Korean Folk Village last week but everland is also a place where many Korean dramas were shot such as Kill me heal me, but also EXO Showtime and Running Man has filmed episodes at the park.
 
 
 
Another must visit is the K-POP Hologram: YG at Everland. YG Family's hologram concerts are on stage 365 days a year. Experience the sensation of a live concert with stunning visual effects and exciting dance melodies you already know and love. Come to Everland and see the power of K-POP  yourself!
 

Tickets and pricing

One-Day tickets can be a bit on the pricy site since they are  48,000 Won for an adult. However keep your eye on the everland website as they always have great coupons for foreigners!
 
Currently there is a 50% discount for foreigner visitors that runs until September 9th 2015 so there is no reason to hestitate. Get a good nights rest and jump on the train tomorrow to visit Everland.

Love, Wietske
