Travelling with a Baby: Korea Day 12-15 Incheon [[Fairytale Village + Chinatown + Bupyeong]]

The last leg of our Korea's adventure was spent in Incheon. We took a flight in to Incheon from Jeju and spent the last couple of days in relax mode.

Incheon is often known for being a metropolitan city rather than a tourist destination. The only reason we came was for easier access back to Incheon Airport and well, Incheon's Songwol-dong Fairytale Village!

Songwol-dong Fairytale Village
Address: 38, Donghwamaeul-gil, Jung-gu, Incheon
Directions: Incheon Station (Seoul Subway Line 1) and Exit 2.
Walk straight for about 200m and turn right into the Donghwamaeul-gil road to arrive at entrance of the village.

Incheon's Songwol-dong fairytale village was the only attraction we visited apart from downtown, Bupyeong Underground Mall.
Situated within Chinatown, Incheon's Songwol-dong fairytale village though small, was rather interesting and beautiful to stroll through. We had a fun time cam-whoring with the various mural and sculptures.
Within Incheon's Songwol-dong fairytale village lies a trick-eye museum that was themed around various animations/fairytales!This is one museum not to be missed! Interesting and quirky. Miss Kwek had fun looking at all the murals while we had fun posing with them!

Highly recommended!
 
After our visit to Incheon's Songwol-dong fairytale village, we made our way back to Chinatown and stroll around for a little before heading back to Bupyeong.
Bupyeong

Bupyeong Underground Mall is pretty huge with many shops and restaurants. It is a great place to chill and that was exactly what we did.

Most of our mornings were spent chilling at Starbucks situated opposite the main shopping mall in Bupyeong. It is often quiet and empty (great for Miss Kwek's morning naps) and has a great view of the road (great entertainment for Miss Kwek!).
While our meals are often taken within Bupyeong Underground Mall, especially at this particular restaurant that serves kongbul (콩불) because firstly, they have baby highchairs (yay!), and the food is affordable and great!
This concludes our first family trip with Miss Kwek! Though this trip was more tiring than we thought it will be, we are still glad we did it! Looking forward to our next trip together!
