Incheon – The Gateway to Korea
Incheon is a city where modern skyscrapers meet rich history, all by the sea. Whether you’re flying in or exploring for a few days, there’s plenty to see and do.
- Why “The Gateway to Korea”? Incheon is home to Incheon International Airport, one of the world’s best and busiest airports. As Korea’s main international hub, it’s often the first stop for visitors. But beyond the airport, Incheon is a city full of history, culture, and seaside charm.
- History: Walk through Chinatown, Korea’s only official Chinatown, explore the historic Open Port Area, or visit Wolmido Island, once a key battle site during the Korean War.
- Culture: Stroll through the futuristic streets of Songdo International Business District, relax in Central Park, or check out the lively markets at Sinpo International Market.
- Food: Try jjajangmyeon (black bean noodles), a local favourite, enjoy fresh seafood at Sorae Fish Market, or snack on dakgangjeong (sweet and crispy fried chicken).

How to Get to HYROX Incheon
Let’s figure out how to get you there!
By Plane
✈️ Nearest Airport: Incheon International Airport (ICN) is the main airport serving Incheon and Seoul. It’s very close to Songdo Convensia, which is handy.
🚖 Getting to the Venue:
- Taxi/Rideshare: You can easily grab a taxi or use ride-sharing apps like Kakao T (the most popular one in Korea) at the airport. The ride to Songdo Convensia is really quick, about 20-30 minutes, depending on traffic.
- Airport Railroad (AREX) & Metro: This is a really convenient option! Take the AREX train from the airport to Incheon National University Station. Then, it’s a short walk (about 10 minutes) to Songdo Convensia. This is often the fastest and most cost-effective way to get there.
By Train/Metro
🚇 Nearest Metro Station: Incheon National University Station (인천대입구역) on the Incheon Line 1 is the closest station to Songdo Convensia. You can get to this station from other parts of Incheon and Seoul using the subway system.

💡 Travel Tips:
✔️ T-money Card: Get a T-money card as soon as you arrive. It’s a rechargeable card that you can use on the subway, buses, and even some taxis and convenience stores. It’s super convenient and saves you from buying individual tickets.
