What Is This Place?
In Incheon Chinatown, you can encounter the Chinese community's culture established after the port opened while walking streets lined with Chinese-style gates and restaurants. Combine a meal of jajangmyeon with a street walk, or include the architecture of the Open Port area.
Choose whether to eat or walk the lanes first
Beyond the entrance paifang arch are Chinese restaurants and snack shops. If planning jjajangmyeon, leave snacks such as gonggalppang or mooncakes until after the meal, and check ingredients and ordering units first.
Chinatown also has slopes. Marking your restaurant and desired streets on a map first avoids repeated uphill walking. If stairs or hills are difficult, start near the restaurant rather than covering every lane.
Discover stories beyond the food streets
This neighborhood developed with a Chinese residential community after the port opened. When viewing buildings and decorations, remember residents live and shops operate here too.
If Chinese dish names are unfamiliar, ask whether you are ordering noodles, rice or a dish rather than relying on photos alone. For allergies, show ingredients to avoid written in Korean and ask whether they are also in sauces or broth.
