Here is what they are saying about Anseong Farmland in the Pyeongtaek Travelers Facebook Group. I should have done a bit more research before we headed out today because I thought we were going to a farm/field, but I was way wrong. Anseong Farmland is like an amusement park/fairground-on farmland. There were carnival type rides, horseback riding, a petting zoo, ice cream shops, restaurants, a magic art (3D) house, souvenir shop, etc. Once you make it past that- you’ll find yourself surrounded by countless sunflowers. We took no less than a hundred pictures because there was so much beauty. It took about 35 minutes from Osan, and you could easily make an entire day of it. Happy adventuring, everyone!

Over Chuseok the Sosabeol parks are a great choice since a variety of businesses remain open in the area. Grab the kids and go for a long bike ride together on one of the many river bike paths. The Pyeongtaek Lake Recreation Area businesses will mostly be closed, which makes it the perfect spot for a Chuseok picnic with friends. You can’t BBQ in the park but you can certainly pack some sandwiches and head that way. Hiking is always a great choice over the Chuseok holiday. Maybe it’s time to try a new trail. We recommend the Jangan Hiking and Biking trails because they are only about a 20-minute drive from Sinjang-dong (near Osan Air Force Base) which has many businesses that remain open during the Chuseok holiday. You can find more local Pyeongtaek hikes in the South of Seoul app by searching “hike” or “hiking” There are actually two bowling alleys in Sosabeol that will be open throughout the Chuseok week, this one is the most visually fun!

The skating area isn’t huge, but the park is gorgeous and skateboarding or inline skating makes any week better! You can easily bring a picnic here! Be warned, the area has not officially opened, which means access to the park can be tricky. Prepare to drive around a little before you figure it out. When in doubt, you can always go to the mall!
