It is the place where Incheon International Airport is and Eulwangri Beach is famous. There are also historic mountains and temples. An island with an area of 125.7 km² in Jung-gu, Incheon. It is South Korea's sixth-largest island and is home to a large-scale reclamation project to build Incheon International Airport. Half of the island's total area is the site of Incheon International Airport. As shown by the satellite imagery above, the island was divided into four islands (Yeongjongdo, Sinbuldo, Sammokdo, and Yongyu Island) in the past, but it became an island through reclamation, and the vast mudflats between Yongyu Island have been transformed into an airport site.In the past, it was only possible to travel through an embankment linking the island to the island. Residents mainly lived on fishing or farming. Salt fields were huge all over the island, but now they're all closed. It overtook Ulleungdo in the late 2000s when reclamation projects were in full swing and surpassed Wando as well as Ulleungdo. It was later expanded to a width of 125 km², which is wider than the facial island, due to continued additional reclamation. The only road that connects is a motorway, so if you don't have a car, you'll have to take a bus, a railway, or a ship on Wolmi Island to get to land. Two-wheeled or large-sized special vehicles that cannot enter the highway must ride in a Paris that connects to Wolmido Island. In addition, there is a magnetic levitation railway at Incheon Airport due to orbital traffic within the island. In the long run, the plan will be a route that will circulate the entire island. There is an airport railway station at the entrance to Yeongjong.
Yeongjong Island (Korean: 영종도) is an island in Yeongjong District, South Korea. It contains Incheon International Airport as well as small villages, farms, and beaches.
