Historically notable as the site of the Incheon Landing Operations during the Korean War, today the former island of Wolmi (it was joined to the mainland in 1989), is a leisure area offering a Coney Island–style waterfront boardwalk and small amusement park. It also has the forested Wolmi Park with tranquil walking trails leading to traditional gardens, the Wolmi Observatory with its panoramic views and the Korean Emigration History Museum.
The Wolmi Sea Train monorail runs from Incheon station and encircles Wolmido, stopping at four stations, in an approximately half-hour trip.
