On the second day, we were separated into 2 teams. One team to Buan, One team to Gunsan. I was in the Gunsan team! I have seen Gunsan on the map and I never thought that I would have a chance to visit this place. What’s more exciting is that when i searched “What to do in Gunsan”, and I saw Gunsan Teddy Bear Museum! TEDDY BEAR MUSEUM! Omg. I love teddy bears!!!!!

I love teddy bears!!!! There was a teddy bear museum at N Seoul Tower many years ago. However, when I wanted to visit the place, it was already closed. T_T
I was really excited when I got to know that we will be visiting the Teddy Bear Museum (like a small kid).

Gunsan Gyeongam-dong Railroad Village (경암동철길마을)
This is probably the must-visit place when Koreans come to Gunsan. There were many couples and group of friends taking photos here, at this railway. I would say that this is one of the good places for photo shoot and this place is called Gyeongam-dong Railroad Village(경암동철길마을)!
If you have been to Shifen & Pingxi in Taiwan, I am sure you have taken some photos at the railway. Here in Gunsan, you can find this railway that cuts through a small village. In Gyeongamdong Railroad Village, you can rent the old school uniform for photo shoot.
