- Open-port area and Songdo are far apart, pick one focus zone per half-day.
- Great for first or last day due to airport-line convenience.
How To Approach
- Use Fast pacing: plan one anchor activity and one flexible activity per day.
- Pair Jajangmyeon with a market or local-street walk for context.
- If this is your first regional stop, choose accommodation near transit hubs.
