Outstanding !! Gwanghwamun Plaza in Seoul !! 광화문 광장 !!

Brand New Gwanghwamun Plaza located in front of the main gate of Gyeongbokgung (Gyeongbok Palace).

About the history of this Gwanghwamun Plaza, More than 600 years ago, Gwanghwamun square was considered the venue for government buildings, with the main six government buildings straddling the square. Officials from these buildings gathered at the royal palace to discuss national affairs with the king during the Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910). Since then, this area was long considered the heart of Korean politics, and it has witnessed important turning points in Korean history.

As you can see the picture below, that is the overview of the Gwanghwamun Plaza!!

Well, actually I went to the launching ceremony of Gwanghwamun Plaza with my friends ( Thai, Loas, Malaysian, Korean)!! We all really amazed about this Ceremony!! We arrived there around 6pm and I took some Pictures around that area.



Later we saw some water spray around the statue of Admiral Yi Sun-shin!! So, we curious and run to the statue. Then we saw this. Amazing!! isn't it?


There were a lot of people from nationality and also Korean waiting for the launching ceremony. There were more people than I expected!! ; )


The Stage for the opening ceremony!! It was a huge stage!!


Before launching, there was some performances and comments from celebrity about this ceremony.


This is the Korean Cultural Dance!! It was Great!!


Comments by Korean Star, Rain!! wow!!


There were some flags brought in to the stage and it was a way to invite high ranking or status personal to the ceremony!! What a grand ceremony!!


Since, the event too crowded with People. It female police need to on duty for this event!! It shown Women and Man Equality!! ^_^ Suddenly they launch the Gwanghwamun Plaza!!


So, How is it? it is amazing right? amazed all of us!!



After the launching, we took some pictures with the back ground of the Korea giant Flag!! But did you all see the person that wear Korean traditional cloth? He is the Korean music instrument musician!! I record his play. Let see it!!


Good Performance!! ^_^


This is the Back view of the stage, and you can see the Haechi is a lion-like horned creature, also known as "Haetae," which was selected as Seoul's new symbol in 2008! Cute!



Very Lucky! we met the Korea famous English show artist when we walk around the plaza!! with no doubt we straight away take pictures with here!! hehe ; )


The back view of the statue!! wow!! the fountain!!


Did you all see the big screen at the underground? It is a LCD screen and it was replying the Korea World Cup Match, the match of Korea against Italy.. Korea win the match!! ^_^



WOW!! the Night view of the fountain look far more beautiful and attractive!! hehe Because of this i decided to record it!! here is it!! enjoy!!


We all Impress!! ^_^


This is the picture we took before we all leave.. what a special moment for all of us!! If you visit Korea, do include this place in your schedule.. Nice place to visit!!

About the way to go there, it is easy. From Airport, either you come to Bus Express terminal or Seoul Station, just take subway line 5 and get off at Gwanghwamun station. Follow the underground path linking the station to the plaza. That's the way!! ^_^ Good Luck!!

1st Blog Ever!!

For my sharing, let me introduce my-self first.
I'm Yih Liang and I prefer people call me LeX!! my hometown is Butterworth, Penang. Now currently at Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. I am just a simple guy that always keep my self busy, i always find something to do when i have free time.. sometime i enjoy keep my self busy as well.. sound weird rite?

Anyway let me share with you all about my experience in A1 GP (www.a1gp.com) VIP pass in Sepang International Circuit. Wait a minute how i get the Pass? well i get from a Father's day contest at Malaysia A1 GP fanzone and i have two tickets, 1 for my dad and 1 for me!! i can say that it is an unforgettable experience for us!!

22 Nov me and my dad went in to the circuit at pit garage entrance and we get the pass from 1 of the A1 GP staff. We walk with others Father's day winner as well. it is a quite a distance from entrance to the Malaysia team pit garage, we all sweating all the way!!

when we all arrive at the pit garage, we all great by Mr. Azrai Razuan Malaysia A1 team public relation person in-charge, then all of us quickly rush to pit to take some photo, here is the 1st photo that i take. The chief engineer was adjusting the car setup and balance. WOW!! They look professional !!
Later on we went to behind to take photo with Aaron Lim (2nd driver of Malaysia A1).
Due to A1 team Malaysia got rule that " any person that not involve in car technical issue in the team, is not allow to get closer to the car". So, me and my dad went to others team to take some others team photo. We went to India A1 team, and we ask for get closer to take photo with the car and the staff allow us to do so and their staffs are very friendly.

The next team we went was New Zealand. The team is in black colour. Later we went upstairs to have buffets lunch and enjoy the qualifying session. You all know what! Malaysia A1 Team got 4th place in qualifying and Malaysia will starting at grid number 4 in feature race at Home GP!! WOW!! and Malaysia 1st ever to leading the championship at home GP. I'm Proud to be Malaysian!! hehe
ok after the qualifying we went to pit garage again to take some photo again. ( my god! we like some kind of photographer).

ya, in the qualifying session, Ireland got 1st place, so, here is me and the 1st place car! hoho.
below is me and the machine of Great Britain team, Switzerland team, Portugal team.and i also take a video of Monaco team that practicing pit stop. The pit stop of A1 GP is a little bit different from F1. A1 GP pit stop not refueling and they not standby at the pit box but standby at the garage, when the car stop at pit box, then they run out from garage to change the tyres. It is quite interesting!!

well then around 6pm after having buffets dinner at up stairs, me and my dad went back.
Anyone feel free to leave some comment..
I will be glad to answer it!!
