Interest in Dongtan New Town, the largest new urban development in southern Gyeonggi Province’s Hwaseong City, is increasing. This is due to improved traffic conditions that offer easier access to Seoul and other metropolitan areas.
In terms of rail service, the GTX-A route (planned) will also stop at SRT Dongtan Station, which is expected to further improve accessibility to Seoul. If you use the Super Rapid Train (SRT), you can go from Dongtan Station to Suseo Station in 17 minutes. In addition, it is easy to travel to neighboring areas and other metropolitan areas by car along the 2nd Beltway (Hwaseong-Gwangju) and Gyeongbu Expressway via Sinri IC and Dongtan IC.
Dongtan New Town 2 is being developed with seven 'special planning areas': the Community Demonstration Complex, which allows different generations to join together and communicate through various community activities; the Metropolitan Business Complex, which comprises the main business area in the southern part of the Korean capital region; the Culture Design Valley, where a cultural space, theme park, and campus town are combined; the Dongtan Techno Valley, which has optimal infrastructure for corporate activities; the Waterfront Complex, which is a harmonized space for leisure, culture, and shopping around a lake; the New Residential Culture Town, a future rural residential complex; and the Medical Welfare Facilities, which are being developed in preparation for an aging society in this new city where nature, people, and culture coexist.
Retail facilities such as E-Mart Traders Dongtan, Lotte Department Store Dongtan, Nonghyup Hanaro Mart Dongtan Branch, Hyundai City Outlet Dongtan Branch, and Homeplus Hwaseong Dongtan Branch also contribute to Dongtan New Town’s renown for optimal living conditions.
Of particular note, Dongtan Lake Park, a landmark of Dongtan New Town 2, is a leisure spot popular for its decks around the lake and a wide grass field where visitors can take walks or go on picnics.
