| Introduction | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| The Hwaseong Train is a tourist train that travels between Mt. Paldalsan and Yeonmudae. The front of the train is shaped like a powerful dragon that signifies King Jeongjo, and the guest cars resemble palanquins that once carried the king during his excursions. The tour is short compared to the City Tour Bus, and there are no introductions available in foreign languages. The course totals 3.2 km and takes about 30 minutes each way. Tourists can board and exit the train at Mt. Paldalsan, Jangan Park, Hwahongmun Gate, and Yeonmudae, but on Saturdays and Sundays the train only stops at Mt. Paldalsan and Yeonmudae. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
