The Other Osan

I bet you think you've explored everything Osan has to offer: the indoor and outdoor pools, the bowling alley, the movies, all the restaurants, all the playgrounds, and the community center. But you might have missed a few things.

Osan is a joint USAF and ROKAF base, and there are some great things over on the other side. They have family housing, just like we do, with playfields and playgrounds. Take a right at the gas station as you're heading towards the main gate, or walk down the hill behind the laundromat to check them out. Or, make a Korean friend to get all the good dirt!

If you turn right at the funky intersection as you come past the golf course, you'll see a nice outdoor static display of some ROKAF planes. The kids can walk right up to them and get a close look, and there's room to run on the grass and some rocks to climb on.

There is a church over there, and lots more.... take a walk, ride or drive sometime and explore the other Osan for an alternative from the same old, same old; you won't be sorry!
