How I walk from Daehwa Station to Kintex, and to Ilsan Lake Park

Since I have no schedule today, I decided to walk to Kintex (Korea largest exhibition centre) and Ilsan Lake Park (one of the Asia largest man-made lake park). As our hotel is nearby Daehwa station, I begin from the walk from Daehwa station Exit 2, cross the street via traffic light~ there is a stone signage indicate that this beautiful walk way with apartment blocks and trees on both side will lead u to Kintex in 5 mins walk (about 300m). As it is an alley between apartment blocks, along the way I could see residents exercising or hang-around at the recreation area.







I briefly look around both Kintex 1 and Kintex 2 including make a pit stop at the tourism desk to obtain map of Ilsan lake park and Goyang-si. However the short visit took nearly an hour as the exhibition is really huge! After get my coffee of the day~ iced caffe latte from Twosome Place at Kintex 2, I then begin my walk to Ilsan Lake Park from Kintex 2 main gate (Gate 2) where there's a huge luggage as landmark. Walk out thru the side way of the gate, continue the journey by walk thru a pedestrian tunnel, I found a beautiful flower wall painting but kind of spooky feel inside the tunnel as it has spider web here and there (as if the tunnel is not being used for sometimes...)






After walk out from the tunnel, continue to head straight for 8 mins until reach a overhead bridge where Hyundai Department Store is located opposite the main road. Use the overhead bridge crossover the main road to Hyundai Department Store. And continue to head straight on left hand side direction to walk pass Hyundai Dept Store.  




After walk pass Hyundai Department Store until the end of the building corner, turn right along the corner and continue walk straight. Walk pass Homeplus and Lotte Vic Mart and cross a main road again (via traffic light). About 10 mins walking time including a quick browse and toilet break at Lotte Vic Mart, I reach the lakeside park entrance which is located at the overhead bridge entrance.




Walk up the stairs to the overhead bridge and the park entrance is there right at the end of the bridge. This overhead bridge is a connecting bridge for Lake Park Apartment residents to go over to lakeside park. Further walk down a little also will lead to another bigger entrance of Lake Park in case miss out this overhead bridge. 








This is also the entrance of Ilsan Lake Park where the musical fountain is. If you wish to know more about the Ilsan Lake Park, do check out the upcoming post~
