Korea China Culture Center Korea China culture center is a center of trading Korea and China’s history and culture. We tried some china’s traditional clothes, chipao. And saw lot of China’s art crafts. It was really great time to know about china.

Japan 18th bank The Japanese 18th Bank is Incheon's 50 th tangible cultural asset, and is placed in about a block away from the First Bank. Japan built this bank in 1890, four years after it forced the Treaty of Kanghwa on Choson Korea, forcing the Koreans to open up three ports to the Japanese and giving them extraterritorial rights.

The Wall of Three Great Kingdoms We walked between the walls which displayed pictures of the three great kingdoms story in China. It was unique. There was a picture telling a story of combat held in Ojangwone in one of them. It decided the destiny of a kingdom, Chok. And it leads to unification of ancient China. It was really cool wall it summarized really well.

All Nations’ Park It is korea’s first western style park. From top of this park, we could view Incheon port and whole ocean. Also there was the statue of General McArthur who led a successful landing of the allied troops at Incheon during the Korean War. It was great time to walk around the park. There were many sculptures and beautiful trees.

Incheon Art Platform Incheon Art Platform is a multiplex cultural arts center purchased and developed by Incheon Metropolitan City. We got a chance to see 3 kinds of exhibitions. One was “Show Room”. It was a kind of photo exhibition. But all the photos were not real. Instead it was made by computer work. Other ones were “The Island of Heroes” and “Pink Room 5.”

After the Field Trip to China Town We had a lot of fun looking around the Inchon China Town. It was great opportunity to experience the Chinese culture without traveling around China. But as we looked around the China Town, we found some flaw. Every piece of exhibition didn’t have enough explain in English. We think that many foreigners who comes to Korea and look around the China Town might get disappointed because of it.
