Hi, I’m Tabi!

Siheung on Gyeonggi’s west coast offers tidal channels, salt-field heritage and prehistoric sites. Start with Gaetgol Park or Oido as a separate outing.

This guide covers places within Siheung, rather than places immediately beside your app check-in.

01 · EXPLORE

Three places to begin

Three places with different atmospheres. Start with the one that appeals to you instead of visiting them all.

Restored salt warehouse at Gaetgol Park01

A first-visit stop

Gaetgol Ecological Park

시흥갯골생태공원

A park preserving the former Sorae salt-field landscape, tidal channels and salt-tolerant plants. The photograph shows a restored salt warehouse; stay on designated paths.

Getting there
Check entrances and return transport on the map

A first-visit stop

Oido Prehistoric Site Park

오이도 선사유적공원

A park interpreting shell middens and earlier coastal life. The image shows Oido at night from a park viewpoint; it does not guarantee night-time opening or access to every viewpoint.

Getting there
Check entrances and return transport on the map

03

A first-visit stop

Lotus Theme Park

연꽃테마파크

Explore lotus fields and paths around Gwangokji. Blossoms are a summer feature rather than a year-round sight; arrange transport separately from Oido.

Getting there
Check entrances and return transport on the map

02 · A LITTLE BITE

What could you try?

Official regional product information records processed lotus-root foods and candy. Earlier sales records do not guarantee current stock; check ingredients, origins and availability.

03 · YOUR FIRST WALK

Keep your first walk simple

Try the Gaetgol Park entrance → designated paths and warehouse area → the entrance. Plan Oido and the lotus park separately using current transport information.

Check the walking route

Check actual distances and travel times on the map. This suggested walk is separate from your app movement record.

Before you set off

  • Check current entry rules, opening information and return transport.
  • Choose an outing suited to steps, slopes and weather.
  • Respect worship spaces and photography rules; check food ingredients at the shop.
