Everland FAQ Guide 2016: Hulutrip provides you Everland Q&A to help you know more about Everland Ticket. Everland FAQ is so popular. Q: How to get to Everland? A: Everland's vast expanse of beauty (unthinkable within population-dense Seoul) comes at the cost of travel time. It's a mighty long journey south to this park, especially if you require public transportation. Although a newly constructed light rail line connects the Seoul subway system to the park, we found that sticking only to trains would take much more time than if we used a combination of the subway and bus systems. The good news is that both are ultra-reliable. The bad news is that the quickest route available from downtown Seoul to Everland still lasted about 90 minutes. For those curious about specific details, we took a subway train to the Gangnam station, then went above ground to catch the 5002 bus to Everland. The bus makes only a few stops on its way to the park, and the route is mostly highway. Buses run every 15 minutes (both ways) from early in the morning until past midnight, which is why we found this option better than the more expensive chartered buses (which still take 90 minutes and offer strict return times). All told, the round-trip journey cost us the equivalent of about $7 U.S. The bus dropped us at one of the Everland parking lots (the same one that serves as the terminus for the rail line), where we were able to board a free shuttle to the park entrance. It was during this winding journey that we began to appreciate the enormity of the Everland complex, which includes the Caribbean Bay water park (not operating in the chilly fall weather) along with hotels and an art museum. Tourist Love EVERLAND Q: What about the layout of Everland? A: After purchasing our tickets it was just a few minutes before park opening at 9:30 a.m., and we waited with a few hundred visitors outside the park's entrance land, called Global Fair. The area is a mish-mash of mostly European architectural styles, with Russian spires placed across from Italian bell towers (such as a replica of St. Mark's Campanile – just like Epcot's). And in the Disney tradition of entrance lands, Global Fair is light on attractions, but heavy on shops and restaurants. After turning left and out of the area, you see the rest of Everland in the valley below, with a giant Ferris wheel (that no longer works, but still lights up at night) in the middle of it all. Beyond this multi-ethnic gateway are four lands that slope into the valley below. There's American Adventure, which highlights frontier elements in one portion and, elsewhere, emulates a modern-day urban atmosphere with American street signs, stoplights and diners. There's a double Viking ship attraction called Columbus Adventures and some extreme spinning rides that reference rock 'n' roll. I particularly enjoyed the New York-themed Hurricane attraction (too soon for Sandy survivors?), which inexplicably included a painted picture of Epcot's Spaceship Earth in the midst of Manhattan landmarks. On one side of the park, just past American Adventure, is Magic Land – mostly devoted to kiddie rides. The area is home to the painstakingly designed Aesop's Village, a pretty little fairy tale land with a children-friendly coaster to boot. Magic Land takes on its share of public domain fantasy characters, including Peter Pan (a spinning ride featuring boats as ride vehicles) and the Wizard of Oz (an old-timey, slightly beat-up carnival fun house). In a nice touch, Magic Land also features moving walkways, which makes the journey back uphill much easier for little ones (or, more likely, their exhausted parents). In other areas of the park, visitors can ride ski lifts as an alternative to descending or ascending the steep inclines that pervade Everland. Tourist Love EVERLAND Paradise Night Q: I planning to go to Everland again during December this year so do you have any advise that the outdoor ride mostly will close during that period? A: I was not there during winter but I know from friends that they have the snow blaster which is for sledding. T express is closed during winter. Winter is great in Korea. You may also try bearstown ski resort. It's about an hour and a half from Seoul. It's a great family fun area. They have family friendly sledding slopes. Have a great Christmas in Korea!
