Nami
Island Let's take a walk along the "Forest of
Sweethearts". Junsang and Yoojin kissed at the
first in this forest.
Even there will be warm greetings from ostriches, rabbits,
deer and other animals which live in the forest freely.
Namiseom Island was formed as a result of the construction
of the Cheongpyeong Dam. It is a half moon shaped (462,809§³)
isle, and on it is the grave of General Nami, who led
a great victory against the rebels in the 13th year
of the 7th king of the Joseon Dynasty, King Sejo (reign
1455 ~ 1468). Namiseom Island is 63 km away from Seoul
in the direction of Chuncheon, and is famous for its
beautiful tree lined roads. The island is 30 minutes
away from Chuncheon and an hour away from suburbs of
Seoul. Since it is not far from Seoul, many couples
and families come to visit.
A special feature of Namiseom
Island is that there are no telephone poles. This
is because all electric wires were built underground
to keep the natural feeling of the landscape. The
complex is 553,560 square yards with chestnut trees
and poplar trees around the isle. In the middle of
the isle, there is a grass field about 316,320 square
yards. It is composed of education and training facilities,
camping sites, swimming pools and water-sports facilities
for motorboats and water skiing. There is also a theme
park with merry-go-rounds, a shooting range, roller
skating rink, and there are lodging facilities such
as resort villas and bungalows.
Petite
France
A 150-year-old residence has been brought here all
the way from France and there is a gallery showing
the works of Saint Exupery, as well as the Orgel House,
which features beautiful antique music boxes. A variety
of exhibitions and hands-on activities are available
all year-round and there are also accommodation facilities.
This is one of the only places in Korea to experience
French culture, and a trip here can also be combined
with a visit to Namiseom Island and Homyeong Lake
nearby.
"Petite France," located in Gapyeong-gun
in Gyeonggi-do, was constructed based on Little Prince.
This theme park was used as
a location for a Korean drama, Bethoven Virus.
A lot of props and photos and
autographs which are related to the drama are displayed.
The western style buildings
and a carpet of yellow flowers on the hills entertain
the view with a boudless prospect.
Rail
Bike
When the Gyeongchun Line, a double-tracked railway
line connecting Seoul and Chuncheon, opened on December
20, 2010, it replaced the Mugunghwa train that traveled
this route for 70 years. Built on the site where
the train on the Gyeongchun Line stops, Gangchon
Rail Park is a popular tourist attraction where
visitors can pedal along old railroad tracks while
taking in the lovely Bukhangang River scenery Opened on August,
2012, the rail park operates from three stations:
Gimyujeong Station, Gangchon Station, and Gyeonggang
Station. The distance between Gimyujeong Station
and Gangchon Station is approximately 8km and the
round-trip distance to Gyeonggang Station is approximately
6km.
The railbike gets famous for tourists because of
Korean entertainment show, 'Running Man'. Many tourists
visit to there and ride on the bike and look beautiful
side view.
