Yeoju: Sightseeing
After yesterday's decision to give China a miss, we now have the rest of our time in Korea to ourselves instead of rushing to Seoul to sit around waiting for a visa for China. So we spent the morning sightseeing.
After packing up at our campsite and picking up some breakfast at a CU, we headed for the tombs of two of the Kings of Goryea, the Korean kingdom that followed the Silla kingdom. The tombs are at two separate but adjacent locations at Yeongneung just outside Yeoju. There is a also a small museum, much of whose information was lost on us because it was all in Korean.
By the time we had finished, it was midday so we headed back into Yeoju to find a motel for the night.
Today's ride: 18 km (11 miles)
Total: 2,060 km (1,279 miles)
