BESTAwesome tour for a day :P Since our family stayed at a hotel nearby Myungdong, it took like less than 10 minutes to get on a tour bus. Unlike Seoul, Nami Island was so peaceful that my son spent the whole time playing around
Into the fairy tale scene,
Chuncheon & Gapyeong Day Bus Tour
It's okay even if you don't have a car. Take pretty pictures at Petite France and Italian Village on a one-day Gapyeong bus tour for travelers on foot, and enjoy a date at Nami Island. Ride the Gapyeong Rail Bike, famous as the filming location for the drama ‘Doctors’, and enjoy the beautiful scenery all year round. A walk in the Garden of Morning Calm, where flowers bloom like waves, is also perfect for healing.
Take a bus tour to see the dazzlingly beautiful nature mentioned in fairy tales!
Pedal to fairyland,
Gapyeong Rail Bike
Begin your tour to a fairytale landscape by riding a rail bike built along the old Gyeongchun Line railway. On the Gapyeong Rail Bike route, the zelkova tree tunnel that changes its colors every season is a representative sight. If you follow the calm and peaceful course overlooking the Bukhangang River, you can cross the 30m high Bukhan River railroad bridge, making it a course full of variety of fun.
Ganggyeong Station, the location of the show, was also the setting for the movie “Letter,” so if you’ve seen the movie, it will be fun to look for what’s on the screen. Feel the atmosphere of a train station that retains traces of the past.
Nami Island, a friendly nature for everyone
If you are looking for peace in nature and a break from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, Nami Island will appeal to you.
As the theme is 'Fairyland, Island of Song', you can feel the healing that Nami Island provides from the moment you step into the cute and refreshing scenery and the gentle river breeze. It is a place that is friendly to nature and animals, so you can meet small animals that children will love, such as squirrels and rabbits. The green lawn, well-maintained trails, and refreshing metasequoia forest path are perfect for riding a bike, picnicking, or walking. If you feel a little tired, there are food and beverage facilities and a performance hall where you can take a break at any time, so you don't have to worry about outdoor activities.
Not only is the calm natural scenery beautiful, but Nami Island is also famous as a place where you can enjoy water leisure activities as it is a load island floating on the Bukhangang River. Leisure activities that relieve stress, such as zip wire and motor boating, are also must-try activities in Nami Island.
Europe near Seoul
The moment you visit Europe, Petite France and Italian Village in Gapyeong, you will feel familiar! Petite France and Italian Village have been loved as filming locations for prominent dramas such as <Vincenzo>, <My Love from the Star>, <Secret Garden>, <Beethoven Virus>, and <The House of Paper>.
Petite France was created with the concept of ‘flowers, stars, and the little prince.’ It's also a good idea to take a look at the characteristics of French-style buildings in a town lined with cute buildings. The Saint-Exupéry Memorial Hall, where you can get a glimpse of Saint-Exupéry's life and his world of works, including his masterpiece 『The Little Prince』, the Music Box House, where sweet melodies resonate perfectly with the scenery, and the Antiques Hall, where you can find antiques collected from all over Europe in one place. Because of the exhibition hall, you will feel like you are traveling to France.
The Italian village has as its main theme the representative Italian fairy tale, 『Pinocchio』 and the works of Leonardo da Vinci. The highlight is the exhibition hall with motifs from the Tuscany region of Italy and the villages of Venice! Experience Italy in this place steeped in Italian sentiment.
Riding the endless waves of flowers
We invite you to the Garden of Morning Calm, an endless garden spanning 100,000 pyeong!
Gapyeong Garden of Morning Calm has about 5,000 types of plants that can be viewed, and about 22 themed gardens, each with its own unique charm, including Hagyeong Garden, Secret Garden, Morning Square, Sky Road, Bonsai Garden, and Korean Garden. I have it. If you love plants and find healing among bright flowers, you will definitely like this place.
In addition to the permanently open greenhouse and viewing facilities, this is a place where flower feasts are held according to the flowers that bloom each season, such as wildflower, hydrangea, and chrysanthemum exhibitions. It also has a variety of walking trails, making it a great place to take a leisurely walk and have a quiet conversation.
