Day 8 Cheongynani and Yoido Full Gospel Church

On day 8...

We took on a journey to visit the largest church in Korea and probably the biggest in the world with more than 1 million members, founded by Rev Dr David Yonggi Cho..

We do not know where the church is initially, and thought that the locals would be able to tell us where it is...the search ended up with us walking almost 2-3 subway stations from Cheongynani station, we only have a photo and name of the church to rely on, the locals guided us to many churches but they are not the church we are looking for...we have a language problem! Most locals do not understand english, we almost gave up on the search but finally we reach a university where somebody could understand ENGLISH!!

Guess what?? The church that we're looking for is very very far away from the initial location that we understand, because there are many local outlets of full gospel church in Seoul, it's at least 45 mins of subway journey....we decided to take on the journey.

It's worth it! The church is fantastic, it's located in the heart of Seoul business district by the river.
It's a tiring but rewarding day...
