Uiwang
The Korean Railroad Museum gives this Seoul-area satellite city a specific draw beyond its lakeside walking paths and forested slopes. Uiwang sits in Gyeonggi Province between Anyang and Suwon, backed by the low peaks of the Gwangju Mountains and bordered by reservoirs including Baegun Lake and Wangsong Lake, whose promenades and rail bike trails are used for day trips from the capital. Seoul Subway Line 1 passes through, making the city straightforward to reach.
