Chinatown’s history began with the opening of Incheon Port in 1883. Following that, Chinese people settled in 1884, and many shops sprang up. However, the majority of it is now made up of Chinese restaurants. When you come here, you can taste the delicacies such as jajangmyeon, gonggalpan, and hongdubyeong.

Jjajangmyeon Museum

The famous jjajangmyeon was first made in Incheon. When the port of Incheon was opened, many Chinese came over and opened a Chinese restaurant in Jemulpo. Jjajangmyeon was born as a result of trying to make food that suited the taste of Koreans. With this motif, the 'Jjajangmyeon Museum', a theme museum containing all the information on Jjajangmyeon, was created. The former Gonghwachun building that first made and sold jjajangmyeon was remodeled, so you can see the appearance of a 100 years ago high-class restaurant . If you go to Chinatown, it would be a good experience to try the famous Jjajangmyeon and visit the Jjajangmyeon Museum.
