Songdo Central Park — Incheon

Songdo is a man-made island that presents a futuristic image with buildings that can be considered works of art. Located within this glittering city is Songdo Central Park, the first seawater park in the nation. The park provides visitors with various water activities including a water taxi, canoeing, and more. Visitors can also enjoy culture and arts throughout the park. At night, the Sonhwajeong Pavilion and the moon above seen from the walking trail create a picturesque scene.
