10. How to reach to Nami Island: you can choose to have a sky cable ride/ 5 mins ferry ride from Gapyeong Wharf



Time spent: definitely take up to 2 hours at least. I was on a company tour with not much info given. The tour guide just told us to walk by ourselves, and come back to the meeting point in 1 hour time. It was a rush hour and it is not possible to complete the whole island in 1 hour. I noticed most of them rent bicycles and electric scooters. Little did I know as I am doing research gathering information for my blog, there was a UNICEF charity train/ story bus! Argh, if only I know there was a train to have a proper guide and also a quick look of the important highlights of the Nami Island. We wouldn’t be running here and there like a running chicken.
Nami Island consists so many different paths and ways that walking to and fro and choosing different paths in 1 hour is impossible. Therefore, take your time to enjoy the nature with a peace of mind, or else, please take whatever transport available in the Nami island – bicycle, scooter, train, or bus. Ask your tour guide or the counter at least.

RESTORAN CHAN HAINAM KOPITIAM 赞记海南冰 yulek cheras - petai char keoy teow, hainam coffee

24 Sept 2020 - Everyone go gaga with 'hainam' and 冰室 as the coffeeshop names nowadays. Actually hainam is also the same as cham. Here is the menu, expensive or cheap? I am not sure why there is a hype naming the coffeeshop 冰室 cause the chinese words are more towards Hong Kong style. The neighbors were talking about this new hainam tea coffeeshop at Yulek. So, I went to try this siham sambal petai char keoy teow priced at rm9. What do you think of this combination? Good taste or merely for bring unique and viral? For me, the petai couldnt fit in together with the CKT. BUT, the belacan is so freshly done and very spicy. The cook didnt use the normal belacan paste (dark red color). On the wok hei part, the plate of char keoy teow taste is blanch though. As for the coffee, I personally think their hainam coffee taste nicer than hainam tea. The hainam tea was tasteless on this day, but my 1st visit ordering hainam coffee is good.
