Paju Water Park

Paju Water Park

A mother, who used to take the summer vacation train to the Hantan River for a swim, sets out with her daughter—who considers floating in the Torrent River (a flowing pool) the ultimate summer getaway. Driving along the Freedom Road, they arrive at the nearby Tongil Dongsan Resort. As they pass the exotic mall and enter the plaza, the child lets out a shout upon seeing Kids’ Land, filled with fascinating rides. “Let’s go there later, too!” Although it was crowded, the convenient layout, the country’s third-largest water park facilities, and a well-organized system befitting its scale left the whole family thoroughly satisfied. Gazing at the light streaming through the skylight into the indoor pool, she thinks of someone, and a contented smile spreads across her face as she recalls the hidden underground world beneath the countless rides. We returned home, breathing in the fresh air of this nature-filled water park, which feels more refreshing as the forest grows. – From a fictional diary written in advance for the summer of 2010.
