Jeongdongjin means . Judging by the latitude, it is located in Jeong-dong of Dobong Mountain in Dobong-gu, Seoul. It used to be a place where a memorial service for the Dragon King was held by the King in Silla Dynasty as well as it is the most well-known sunrise spot in Korea where the sunrise festival designated by the government was held in 2000.

So I went to Jeongdongjin, the famous spot for sunrise. It was in the mid-February so weather was kinda warm like spring and chilly like winter at the same time.

This is the ticket office for Jeongdongjin Rail Bike activity. It starts to move every hour. Circulating the Hourglass Park takes 40 minutes and it costs 20,000 won for a two-seaters bike and 30,000 won for a four-seaters bike.

A family on a four-seaters rail bike looks so happy.

The rail bike heads to Sun Cruise Hotel far away and comes back here. It's a 5km distance route that you can run while you enjoy the cool view of the ocean.

One ticket costs 500 won to get into the train station then you can see the ocean closely.

This is a living rock that tells us we're in Jeongdongjin Station. It's thinner than the regular one yet natural, not artificially processed.

The typical view of Jeongdongjin Station. The railway running in parallel with the ocean and a pine tree. I feel like the god of the sea would answer to one of my prayers if I make a wish while I put a stone on the tower of hopes.

The old couple traveling Jeongdongjin moved me a bit.

If you're in Jeongdongjin with someone, I think you should absolutely take pictures like this. ㅎㅎ

Finally the ocean train was coming back from afar.




NIKON Df | f/2.8 | iso 100 | 2015:02:14 10:30:45 | Flash did not fire. | 85mm



A tourist was running towards the ocean train. “Honey, come here now~"

They look like four girls who went to same high school getting excited to take the tour train. All of the VIP seats are facing the windows to appreciate the ocean.

I liked the way the tourists use a train to get to other place. They were walking in haste with a bag on each one's back.

I could see a train employee working at Jeongdongjin Station. The station looks lonely but he must be busy dealing with tourist crowds on weekends.

The train that stopped at the station for a moment leaves again and all that's left on empty railways would be stories of people.

Two people, who seemingly a husband and a wife, were guarding the station. The old man sells balloons and the woman sells cotton candy.

If you walk 100m past the station, there's a street on your left that leads you to the beach. And four-wheel bikes were waiting for the customers on the beach.




NIKON Df | f/4.0 | iso 125 | 2015:02:14 10:32:12 | Flash did not fire. | 85mm



The sound of four-wheel bikes and waves were in harmony.




NIKON Df | f/3.5 | iso 140 | 2015:02:14 10:18:17 | Flash did not fire. | 85mm



Young girl who's attracted to four-wheel bikes.

I could see Sun Cruise Hotel far away. I could've seen the sun rising above the bow of that ship in the early morning.




NIKON Df | f/8.0 | iso 100 | 2015:02:14 10:12:28 | Flash did not fire. | 85mm



I guess this guest house would be more convenient place than the ship-shaped hotel to take pictures of sunrise in the morning. For it's a nice place, there are cheap guest houses lining up in the back alleys.

Warm fish cakes and hot dogs were waiting for tourists to warm them from cold sea breeze and appease their hungers at the entrance to the beach.
