Tour description
Incheon is Korea's great gateway port, the city where Korea first opened to foreign trade and where the famous landing of the Korean War took place. Home to the largest Chinatown in Korea and a fascinating open-port district, it blends history with a modern waterfront. On this walking tour a local guide reveals its heritage.
You will wander the colourful Chinatown, explore the historic open-port district with its old Japanese and Western buildings, and hear about the opening of Korea and the war. Along the way you will discover the birthplace of jajangmyeon noodles. Historic and lively, Incheon is a rewarding city to explore on foot.
