Once an island, Wolmido was later a military base and site of the Incheon Landing Operation during the Korean War. Today it's a leisure area with atmospheric Coney Island–style waterfront boardwalk and amusement park. It also has the forested Wolmi Park with tranquil walking trails leading to traditional gardens and the hilltop Wolmi Observatory with wonderful 360° views of Incheon and beyond.
At the base of the park, the Korean Emigration History Museum offers an interesting insight to the journey of Korean migrants, with a focus on settlers' experiences in the US and the Americas.
