If somebody expects to find an extraordinary fun in Phoenix Park, or some interesting cultural activity, or some sightseeing of historical value, there is not much of that – if any. Finally, there are a couple of shops offering various snacks, drinks and accessories. Besides the cafeteria, which was cheap and mostly crowded by young people this February, there were a couple of fashionable restaurants for those with deeper wallets. You can also order fast food in several outlets, etcetera. The cafeteria offers traditional Korean cooked meals, based on rice and vegetables, including well-known Kimchi in different flavors, as well as some western-style meals. It will satisfy your hunger at any time because it is open almost the whole day. There is also an excellent restaurant called 'cafeteria', which is near the slopes too. Hotels in Phoenix Park are located just 1-3 minute walk from the nearest ski slopes, so you will not need any additional transportation to and from your hotel room. You can perform winter sports both during the days and during the nights, though the tickets for night skiing are more expensive.

Tickets for the Center Plaza pool are sold per day and I was not sure if repetitive going outside and inside was allowed with the same ticket. There are also internationally recognized, excellent golf facilities available. Besides several ski slopes that range from those for beginners to those for advanced skiers and semi-professionals, Phoenix Park is also equipped with 'Blue Canyon', which is a family-oriented swimming & fun summer sub-resort with both indoor and outdoor zones, as well as the 'Center Plaza' house with a nearby indoor pool. If unsure related to the bus lines, just ask your hotel receptionists. If you do not mind traveling by bus, there are several bus lines starting from Seoul to Phoenix Park and vice-versa, and I found the 'Good Bus' as a reliable and non-expensive operator (16,000 won per 1-way ride ticket). You need less than 2 hours by bus from Seoul to Phoenix Park (the road distance is approximately 180 km).
