Timeline

    California Beach

    Walk through California Beach while the late afternoon sun is still bright. The wave pools and slides are less crowded now, and the light hitting the water is pleasant before the evening chill sets in.

    Gyeongju Cheonnyeon Hanu Bomun

    Head to Gyeongju Cheonnyeon Hanu Bomun for dinner. This is the perfect time to secure a table for the all-you-can-eat hanu beef BBQ. The meat is fresh, the side dishes are plentiful, and you will be eating while the sky is still in its final golden hues.

  3. 18:32

    Shilla Court

    Finish your meal and move to Shilla Court for a drink. It is open late, making it an easy stop to cap off the evening with a quiet drink after the busy dinner service.
