Songdo International City

Getting here

From Incheon Airport

By road, cross Incheon Bridge: KTO puts ConvensiA about 20 minutes from the airport, and says the bridge crossing takes within 20 minutes and saves more than 40 minutes on the trip to the airport. By public transport, KTO's 2023 figure for the Songdo International Business District is about 1 hour 30 minutes. By rail, take the Airport Railroad to Gyeyang, 37 minutes after Terminal 2 on the airport's diagram, and change to Incheon Subway Line 1 for Central Park.

From Seoul

KTO puts ConvensiA about 50 minutes from Seoul. By rail, ride Seoul Subway Line 1 to Bupyeong and change to Incheon Subway Line 1 for Central Park Station; Incheon City lists the Bupyeong transfer, and Seoul Station has Line 1.

From Chinatown and Incheon Station

Take Seoul Subway Line 1 to Bupyeong, then Incheon Subway Line 1 to Central Park.

One easy day from here

1. Morning Incheon Subway Line 1 to Central Park Station, then the park loop, about an hour and a half on foot (KTO), and a water taxi from the West Boat House.
2. Midday Lunch and a wander through Songdo Hanok Village.
3. Afternoon The G-Tower's 33rd-floor observatory (closed Mondays) for the view of Incheon Bridge, then cafés along the Canal Walk or Triple Street.
4. Sunset Arts Center Incheon, a popular sunset-viewing spot on KTO's course, then back to Central Park for the lit Sonhwajeong Pavilion.

Before you book

• Convention dates fill Songdo. ConvensiA is, in KTO's words, the ideal venue for MICE, so look at its event calendar before you book.
• Festival weekends sell out. The Incheon Pentaport Rock Festival ran at Songdo Moonlight Festival Park from 31 July to 2 August 2026, and KTO noted that tickets sell fast; book rooms as soon as the next dates are announced.
• Stay near a Line 1 station. Central Park Station connects via Gyeyang to the Airport Railroad and via Bupyeong to Seoul Subway Line 1.
• Monday is closing day at the G-Tower observatory (KTO, 2023), so plan the view for another day.
