Overview

Gokseong Train Village Dreamland is an amusement park integrated into the larger Seomjingang Train Village complex in South Korea. It serves as a nostalgic family attraction featuring classic fairground rides such as a Viking ship, a Ferris wheel, and bumper cars. The park is situated on the site of the former Gokseong Station, which repurposed decommissioned railway infrastructure for tourism. Visitors can ride the Gokseong Steam Locomotive along the nearby Seomjin River track. The park frequently hosts seasonal flower festivals, particularly involving roses. It caters primarily to families with young children seeking a retro-themed park atmosphere. The facility is managed as part of the broader regional effort to promote eco-friendly railway tourism in the Jeollanam-do province.
