Introduction

Incheon is the soon to be the second largest city in South Korea, expected to surpass Busan by 2012. It is seved by train, subway, and buses, and the relatively new (2002) Incheon International Airport. This is the city where General McCarthur directed the landing of Marines during the Korean conflict of 1950-1953. There is a huge park and monument dedicated to the General not far from the landing zone. On the beach front there is a boardwalk offering entertainment, food, lounge chairs and amusement rides. Do not count on going swimming there. There are serious rip tides.

Incheon City has everything you could ask for, but nothing special. Take away the historic attraction of the McCarthur landing and it is just another big city.

South of Incheon is different. Anmyeon-do is a small island connected now by a bridge and road. Here, you have beaches, magnificent flower shows, and on the beach road you can see camping areas. Between Incheon and Anmyeon-do is Taebu-do where you can get the best clam, cuttlefish, crab and other seafood dishes on the west coast.
