We were fortunate to go the Yongpyong Ski Resort during holiday to South Korea with Chan Brothers last year. The trip from Seoul to Yongpyong took us about three hours by coach as it was raining. As it was winter, at about 1730H, it was already dark. We stopped at the ourskirt of the resort to have our dinner - steam boat - it was perfect for such a cold weather. Thereafter, we proceeded to collect our ski clothing for use the next day. Although the clothing is included in the tour package, we have to pay for our ski googles. Even if you have forgotten to bring your own gloves, you can buy it at the ski equipment rental shop.
After collecting our ski equipment, we proceeded to Yongpyong for our overnight stay at Greenpia - one of the few accommodation available at the resort. The rooms were Korean-styled ondol, which has heated flooring.
One of the room allocated to us faces the ski slopes and it was a great sight.
The next morning, we changed into our ski clothing and before we checked out, we managed to take more pictures of the wonderful sights which lie just a doorstep away.
