East Coast Road Trip - Sokcho and Seoraksan National Park



Sokcho - a city of 90,000 sandwiched between the Sea of Japan and the granite peaks of Seoraksan park. Its not disney land you see but a fairyland castle motel, perfect for bottom-budget honeymooners and English teachers looking to spend a night for less than 20 bucks. A pretty cheap weekend trip to get out of the big smoke and into some real mountains. South Korea is really not a very large country, but on account of congested freeways a 150km trip to the opposite coast still may last a 5 hour bus ride. Turns out other people want to use the roads as well! At least here there's no -36C w/ windchill and ice-glazed highway 2's to contend with.... drive safe you Calgarians!
