Beautiful Station and Amusement Park Filled with Great Memories

<Ilyeong Station and Ilyeong Amusement Park, Yangju>

The main characters (played by Jeon Ji-Hyeon and Cha Tae-Hyeon) in the film “My Sassy Girl” say their good-byes at a beautiful, quiet train station after burying a time capsule together. The station is Ilyeong Station, in Yangju.

With Seoul Ring Expressway fully opened, we can now visit Ilyeong Train Station and Ilyeong Amusement Park more easily. A short trip from Songchu IC of Seoul Ring Expressway will bring us to Ilyeong Station and Ilyeong Amusement Park, via National Road No. 39 and Local Road No. 349.

Ilyeong Station is a small train station located between Byeokje Station and Jangheung Station on Seoul Suburban Line, which started operation on July 10, 1961. Local residents would take the trains every morning to go to work or school, couples and families would enjoy day trips, and university students would enjoy overnight barbecue parties. As more roads were built in the Seoul suburban areas, the number of passengers decreased, eventually resulting in the suspension of passenger trains in 2004.

It is just a closed train station with one station building and an outdoor waiting area, but it give visitors a chance to walk along the railway tracks and enjoy a romantic trip to a quiet, tranquil place. It is quite popular among amateur photographers, and is also a recommended tourist destination for couples and families.

Ilyeong Station is located adjacent to Seoul and the Seoul Metropolitan Area, and the adjacent Ilyeong Amusement Park and Jangheung Tourist Park feature a wide range of great restaurants, beautiful cafes, and museums, as well as Songam Observatory and numerous historic sites.

We can visit Ilyeong Amusement Park, which is located along the curvy streams of Gongneungcheon, by crossing Local Road No. 349 from Ilyeong Station. Facilities such as soccer fields, kickball fields, restaurants, basketball courts and pools are located at both sides of the stream at regular intervals.

Ilyeong Amusement Park Driveway leads us to the deep mountain villages along Gongneungcheon, and it is a solitary driving course where we can see streams and forests. The driveway is connected with National Road No. 39, and then divides into the roads bound for Goyang and Uijeongbu.

As Ilyeong Amusement Park is located in the Green Belt Area, we cannot see large-scale resorts featuring cutting-edge facilities near the Park. Instead, we can see the forests and streams in the raw. We can have dinner at the tables along the riverside, and dip our feet in Gongneungcheon and enjoy tubing, enjoying the atmosphere of an old-style resort.

As the Park is located near Seoul and has spacious playgrounds and parking spaces, it has gained popularity as a perfect spot for training, company excursions and workshops. There are also a large outdoor pool and a boat pool in the Park.
