Special Korean History Education in Incheon 1 Day Experience Tour Incheon is the largest city in the West coast of Korea with a population of over 3 million people, which is located whithin an hour’s distance from the capital, and has rich history and culture. Incheon’s dolmens were designated as an UNESCO World Heritage and it was also the first city in Korea to have opened up its doors to the world in 1883. Incheon is Korea's first open port and at the center of modern history. In 1883, when Jemulpo Port was opened, Japanese style streets were established starting from the Qing - Japanese Concession area Boundary Stairs climbing to Jayu Park near Jung-gu Office toward the direction to Sinpo International Market.

A place created for regional artists and writers, it is indeed the “sea for inspirations” where they all work to come up with new creative ideas. Thirteen buildings that are used for various purposes – art craft studio, museum, training center, a gallery and performance center – present a unique atmosphere as they are filled with artistic mood. Due to this reason, Incheon Art Platform is a popular space for those visitors who want to take memorable photographs. The place has even become more famous as it was the shooting location for tvN drama “Goblin” that gained great popularity in early 2017. Incheon Open Port Modern Architect A place where you can see existing forms of modern architecture as well as types of modern architecture that no longer exist Tangible Cultural Asset No. 50 Incheon Modern Architect was built on wooden truss and its rooftop was built with Japanese roof tiles, which creates a somewhat exotic look. One can come across various styles of architecture such as buildings from early modern times, landscapes of the Former Concession district and lost modern architectures. Incheon Modern Architect is a place that displays the landscapes of Incheon after the opening of the port; one can get an insight into how Incheon looked then by going through the precious data kept in the gallery. Incheon Open Port Museum Modern Legacy of Incheon Open Port Area Tangible Cultural Asset No. 7 Incheon Open Port Museum is a remodeling of former Japan #1 Bank building, capturing every historic part of Incheon’s port opening. It consists of four always-on galleries, a storage room for artifacts, a curator room and convenience facilities; there are 669 relic items in 321 types that were derived between the period after the opening of the port in 1883 and 1910 when Japanese colonial rule started. Incheon Open Port Museum, which captures the essence of the history of the port opening of Incheon, is a museum where one can study every facet of modern Incheon since the opening of the port as well as various aspects of modern culture that were introduced during the opening port period in Incheon. The 1st Exhibition Hall depicts the opening of the port and features modern relics, and one can view the history of the Gyeongin Railroad and Korea’s railroad history in the 2nd Exhibition Hall. In the 3rd Exhibition Hall, one can experience the scenery from the period during Incheon’s port opening, and the 4th Exhibition Hall recapitulates the history of the transition period of Incheon and its financial institutions. Jung-gu District Office Indirect Experience to the Open Port Period Registered cultural assets No. 249 After the opening of the port, Japan first built a consulate to protect Japanese people in the former Concession District. Japan’s consulate was opened on October 31, 1883, earlier than any other institution, in the current Jung-gu District office area. After the Resident-General was constructed in 1906, the place was used as the office. In 1910, just after Japanese Government-General of Korea Building was constructed, the office was used as the Incheonbu Government Office Building. After the restoration of independence, the place was used as Incheon City Hall, but since 1985, the office has been used as Jung-gu District Office. Incheon Jung-gu District Office was actually a western style two story wooden building during the open port period. The construction materials including the wood were all imported from Japan; it was newly constructed as a two story building in 1933 and as a three story building in 1964. Overall, the building showcases the special features of the modern construction style of the 1930’s. The scratchy style that constitutes the exterior part is something not easy to see these days; it is reminiscent of old times, retaining historical and architectural value.You can witness the street of modern open port, as if you’ve entered into a traditional play. The surroundings offer you various and interesting sites that are entertaining and engaging such as Incheon Open Port Museum, Incheon Open Port Architect and Incheon Art Platform. Jayu Park Romantic Trip in Each of the Four Seasons After the port was opened in 1888, Jayu Park was managed and administered by the foreigners’ settlement cooperation, which gave it the name “Gakguk(All Countries) Park”. When the settlement of the foreigners was abolished and the park’s administration rights were transferred to Incheon Bureau as Japan took control, the park started to be called Seo(West) Park in 1914. After the restoration of independence in 1945, the park was called Manguk Park. From October 3, 1957 when the statue of General MacArthur, who led the Battle of Incheon, was erected in the park, the park finally got its present day name of Jayu Park. The entire Eungbongsan Mountain is called Jayu Park. It preserves various heritages such as the Korea – US 100 years of Friendship Tower, Nature Conservation Tower, Memorial Tower for Cherishing the Souls of Patriots, and Seokjeongru. When you climb up Seokjeongru, you can see the Port of Incheon as well as Wolmisan Mountain Bukseongpogu port all at once. Harbor Park Hotel (하버파크호텔) Located within 40 minutes of the Incheon International Airport in downtown Incheon, Harbor Park Hotel is a themed hotel with a panoramic view of Incheon’s Chinatown to the west and the beautiful ocean to the east.

Jemulpo Club(Gurakbu) A spot for exchanging modern culture Tangible Cultural Asset No. 17 Jemulpo Gurakbu used to be a social community building that was built in 1883 after Incheon port was opened; it was a place where foreigners from the U.S., England, Germany, France and Netherlands that lived around Jemulpo, Incheon came to build relationships and to interact with one another. The building, which was built in 1901, is a two story building made of bricks; the rooftop is covered by steel, and inside the building, there are various facilities including a library and social community room. After 1914, the building was used for the Japan Veterans’ Association; since the restoration of Independence, the place was used as the commissioned officers’ club for the U.S. army. From 1953 to 1990, the place served as Incheon Metropolitan City Museum. From 1990 to 2006, the place was used as Incheon Cultural Center; it was redeveloped as Jemulpo Gurakbu in 2007.
