About this itinerary
Seongnam is known for its markets and long-running local eateries, which makes it a great city to eat your way through on foot. This itinerary centers on places like Hyoja Village Food Alley, Genie's Magic Lamp, Cheoneunjung Temple, and every meal is a short walk from the stop before it.
From Incheon Airport it takes about 1 hr by the AREX airport railroad. Anything within about 20 minutes on foot, you walk.
You stay all 2 nights near Seongnam Central Park and start every day from the same place — no repacking.
Day 1: Hyoja Village Food Alley, Genie's Magic Lamp, Cheoneunjung Temple, Seohyeon Demonstration Gourmet Street. Lunch at Kkang Udon Bundang Seohyeon, dinner at Yangpuae Deunggalbi Bundang Seohyeon.
Day 2: Danggol Park, Dolphin Market, Neunggol Park, Shin Hae-cheol Street, Taehyeon Park. Lunch at Hyowon Restaurant Bundang Main, dinner at Ttangkkeut Susan.
Day 3: Seongnam Central Park, Sunae-dong House. Lunch at Ilmi Dakgalbi Pajeon Seohyeon Station. Then head back to Incheon Airport.
Some market stalls close by late afternoon, so earlier is better. Go a little hungry and share small plates at several places.
Times in this plan are worked out from the distance between stops and how long you stay at each one. Feel free to drop a stop or two for a slower pace. Every stop has location and directions buttons that open the map directly.
