What an incredibly large city

I'm really impressed with this place. Even though it's huge, it's orderly, civilised, clean, safe and it doesn't seem to be all that crowded.

I  took the following from Wikipedia.

With a population of over 10 million, it is one of the world's largest cities and is by far the most densely populated city among OECD nations. The Seoul National Capital Area, which includes the Incheon metropolis and most of Gyeonggi province, has 24.5 million inhabitants, and is the world's second largest metropolitan area.[after Tokyo] Almost half of South Korea's population live in the Seoul National Capital Area.

That means that more than Australia's population is squeezed into the Seoul metro area.  No wonder it's big.

Wow!

  2. Don't know about the coffee, it's been too hot. What is interesting is that we are in an extremely crowded country with 50 million people and you are in a territory 10 times larger but with the population of Strasbourg. We leave for Frankfurt tomorrow and see your dad on the weekend.
