Located just west of Seoul on the Yellow Sea, also referred to as the East China Sea, Incheon is Korea’s 4th largest city.
On a map Incheon and Seoul appear to be connected, however, both cities have different jurisdictions and local governments and their policy makers work separately.
Over the past decade Incheon has experienced unprecedented growth. Now home to the worlds largest international airport and free economic zone, Incheon is poised to continue it’s ever expanding infrastructure. High rise apartments are going up by the dozens and recent plans for the Incheon twin towers will showcase the world’s 3rd and 4th tallest sky scrapers.
Incheon is the perfect alternative for those who want to live and work in a big city yet don’t want the constant grind and congestion of Seoul. Additionally, a quick 30 – 60 minute bus or subway ride brings you right into downtown Seoul; time constraints obviously depend on where you’re departing from and where you plan on going.
