Petite France - The Little France in Korea

We took the train via ITX Cheongchun line (board at Chyeongnyangni station) bound to Gapyeong station. When we arrived at the Gapyeong train station, we grab some brochures for the recommended attractions to visit and the timetable for the circle tour bus. We chose to take the Gapyeong Tourist Shuttle bus going to Petite France. For a fee of 6000 won you can ride to and from its 10 destinations (Nami Island, Petite France, The Garden of Morning Calm, etc).
