paekakboyz Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 Hi All, I'm off to Israel in Oct and have a night in Seoul on the way there. Had a search for aquariums and it looks like COEX is the one to see. I wanted to check if anyone have been there... http://www.coexaqua.co.kr/english/main1_1.asp Not a huge amount of details on the actual displays but... "It is the greatest theme aquarium in Korea, with 2,500 tons of water , and 40,000 marine wildlife of 650 species " Oh yeah! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aquatopia Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 Who are you flying with and how long do you actually have in Seoul ? My flight got me in to the airport around 6pm, and then because I wanted a city centre hotel for the free stopover I had to wait till 7.30 to get the shuttle - its a 60-90 minute transport to the city depending on traffic. Then we left the hotel at 11am next day to get back to the airport for a 3pm flight out. There wasnt any time other than to wander round the local shops. Having said that I dont know what times the aquarium is open so it might work. Looks a good place to see though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paekakboyz Posted April 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 flying Korean Airlines. Have worked out that I'll have just over half a day to have a look around. Get to Seoul around 4pm and leave around 5.30pm the following day. Figured I'm only really going to have time to check out a couple of places and I'd love to see a really big aquarium. Looks like its pretty central and there are some good instructions on transport etc. hmmm I'll have to check whether there are any aquariums in Tel Aviv as well!

Adrienne Posted April 23, 2009 Report Share Posted April 23, 2009 I'll be interested to know whats in Seoul as well. We have just under a day there on the way to Italy in September. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
