- 승연 조3 contributionsIf you're only staying here for a little while, you should probably visit Songdo Central Park. The park is beautifully landscaped with abundant trees, flowers, and lush green lawns. The walking paths are well-paved, making it pleasant for strolling. Also you can rent a bicycle or a water boat in the park. I enjoyed a picnic on the well-manicured lawns, which was a cozy and joyful experience. When night falls, the fantastic night view is created by the lighting of the high-rise buildings and bridges. What’s more, drone shows are sometimes held in the park, which are also very impressive. I can’t recommend it enough!Visited May 2024Traveled as a coupleWritten June 29, 2024
- Deanosaur89Edmonton, Canada9,398 contributionsWe had a nice walk with friends in Songdo Park and took some nice group photos here before the sun set. The park is very new so the walking paths are in good condition. There are some art centres and museums in the area including a Hanok Village and the park itself is surrounded by hotels and many good dining options. There was also a little zoo area with some deer. We walked through the park a few times during our visit to Incheon with our longest time in the park being about 30 minutes. Closest metro station is Central Park and the Incheon National University station is close to the southwest corner of the park. Nearby there is the Art Center Incheon which has an excellent concert hall.Visited December 2023Traveled with friendsWritten August 30, 2024

Area for camping, mill, river to surf, gym area with outdoor exercise bikes and small zen village.

- podrozniczka60New Jersey17,213 contributionsIt is a pleasant destination for walking or biking. The views here are urban, but possess some streamlined beauty - and even, to a degree, are relaxing. There are interesting art installations throughout. We read that the park was inspired by the Central Park in New York.Visited August 2024Traveled as a coupleWritten September 9, 2024
- Kagan DracaBilbao, Spain14,524 contributionsCentral Park in the heart of Songdo. Responsible for the rest and mental health of the residents of Shinjuku. It is thought to benchmark Central Park in New York. The promenade along the river and the landscape varies by season, and the landscape is characterized by lighting.Visited February 2024Traveled soloWritten January 29, 2025

Both time I went to the Park was in the winter, and it was cold one day, and snowing the other day. Regardless Central Park is a great place to go and visit, take nice long walks, and take in the nature, plus some historical significance.
Summertime has boats you can pedal around in the lake, and that looks fun and relaxing. Recommend it !

It's a lovely place to visit both day and night time. Incheon Songdo Central Park is a cozy place to take a walk with your friends, family kids, or even alone. You can feel the very fresh air and a lot of greenery of trees. It's good to rest and relax your body, mind, and soul. Please do not miss to take the Water Taxi along the canal. This canal is the seawater canal. which is the first one in Korea.
My favorite time is late afternoon until early night time to see the lighting and feel the cool breeze. :-)

The best park in incheon by far with different theme and function for all to enjoy. The last time we were there they have some deers in an enclosure but this time we weren’t able to Chk them again due to extreme cold weather with so much snow. It’s December 2022 and the place is covered in snow and very very cold so we were not able to explore its entirety. This is the 3rd time we came to see the park. The best time to visit this park is spring until early autumn for surely be packed with people from walks of life.

Songdo Central park is a nice urban park in the heart of the newly built city of Songdo. There are lots of trails along the lake front. There are nice restaurants fronting the park. It is on the Incheon city subway line. COSTCO is walking distance if you want to buy a picnic lunch. there are boats for rent and a nice municipal histrory museum as well.

I visited Songdo Central Park just last week. I spent a whole day exploring and walking around. There is a Hanok Twosome Place Cafe just off the river. The cafe was packed, but it was nice to relax there and hide from the heat. The Park itself is nice and offers a leisure walk around with bridges, to walk over and enjoy the views. You can take a cruise along the river or jump into a paddle boat. I enjoyed the modern and varied architecture of the many buildings. But the most beautiful views came after sunset and into the night where the whole place sparkled with lights of the surrounding buildings. If you are into architecture, you will enjoy this place. The restaurants along the river are quite pricey, but there are restaurants in the nearby high rise buildings which you can enjoy as well. Costco (and its foodcourt) is also within 10 minutes walking distance from the river.

The park was centrally located in Incheon, right next to an MRT station. It was beautiful though it was lightly raining while we were there. Worth to spend an hour to walk around, sit back and relax.

Nice park with plenty of things to do, great for running or just chill. It gets very crowded in Summer. Go early to enjoy a more peaceful vibe. Songdo is a brand new high-tech city, it is very clean and organized, with lots of department shops for window shopping and restaurants to choose from, other than that, nothing much to do.

It has really nice view. I can enjoy canal, flowers, grass, and also skyline. It was really good that not crowded too much. Recommend if you love taking a trail :D
경관이 매우 좋습니다. 도시를 가로지르는 운하에 더불어 화려한 스카이라인까지 함께 즐길 수 있습니다. 너무 붐비지 않는것도 마음에 들었습니다. 산책을 좋아하신다면 한번 걷는걸 추천드립니다.

Lovely place to walk and take pictures. There was a concert in the park when I went being put in by college students. They also have paddle boats there. Not far from the Posco Tower or northeast Asia trade tower. It’s free to enter and go up to the observation floor. It’s part of the Incheon Free Economic Zone. You can see all around the city from the top.

do the boats/canoes still operate during winter? will the lake be frozen?
Written October 7, 2018
The lake will likely be frozen. Boats and canoes do not operate in winter
Written October 14, 2018
They have individual and two person kayak, paddle boats for multiple people (if you are bringing your family), little boats with motors. The boat rides are pretty cheap ranging from 5,000 Won to 30,000 Won+

Thanks for the tips!
Does anyone have a map of central park to share, showing the walking paths/guides?
How long does it take to cover the entire ground on foot?

Hi, what is the name of the shopping mall just beside central park? not the NC cube. Is there a central park mall?
Written February 7, 2016
I think it is called Lotte Mart. It is actually a very good size with several levels and many goods and services, including ramen noodles and eye care. It is just across the street from the Central Central Park. By now, the Park should have opened several more tea shops and restaurants that have adopted traditional Korean architecture. Have fun!!

Hi sondo central park seems really near the airport but is an hr ride away via the train and bus services?
Whats the best way to get there and how long does it take? We have about half a day at the airport and will like to venture nearby.
Written July 9, 2015
Hi. You can take the taxi cabs that are at the gate and maybe negotiate with them to wait for you and bring you back to the airport. There might be available day tours for travelers with long layovers. Just approach their customer service desk. I hope this helps.
