Sihwaho Lake Reed Marsh Park

Reviewed By Jeff H - Whitehall, Pennsylvania

I've gone here a couple times for weekend birdwatching although it's closed this winter to prevent bird flu. It preserves a small patch of marshland (most of which is being converted to industry in the Ansan area). Some of the areas on the edge of the park are a bit polluted, but the core areas are fine. There's also a nice exhibit hall.
The nearby riverside Promenade seems popular with walkers and cyclists, though most don't go near the park. Also, there's supposed to be a bus that goes there, but I've never seen one.

T-Light Park

가족끼리 주말이나 아님 밤에 드라이브 하러 많이 가요! 생각보다 편의시설도 많고 전망대에서 야경도 이뻐 자주는 아니지만 경기도 근교에서 놀러가거나 드라이브 하기에는 좋은 장소인거 같아요!
I usually go there with my family. there are some convenient store like restaurant and cafe...also there has a Observatory to see view in the west coast in Korea. However, I'd not recommend when you travel, cause it is not convenient to public transportation.

Ansan Wa Stadium

Reviewed By Richard M - Southern Highlands

The only football game in the Seoul area was K League Challenge at Ansan. A huge stadium wasted on a small team. Torrential rain but no hesitation in starting on time. 0-0 draw. Not much atmosphere just cold fans looking for shelter while the brave players got drenched.

It's a small botanical garden. I enjoyed the scent of flowers and plants. There're name post next to a plant but I couldn't recognized whether it's indicating the right one or the left one.

Tando Port

Reviewed By mahastha - Seoul, South Korea

안산의 탄도항은 서울에서 사진찍으러 가기 좋은 곳이라서 노을 질때 종종 가는 곳입니다. 탄도와 누에섬은 낙조가 아름답기로 잘 알려져 있는 곳입니다. 특히 다른 항구들과 달리 섬 앞에 풍력발전기가 움직이고 있어 다른 섬들과 달리 독특한 풍광을 만나볼 수 있는 곳입니다. 무엇보다 이 항구의 매력 중 하나는 만조와 간조 사이, 간조 때에는 탄도와 누에섬이 이어지기에 걸어서 닿을 수 있는 점입니다. 카페는 예쁜 곳이 없지만 회를 파는 센터가 있어서 항구에서 식사를 할 수 있었습니다.
