Here is some informatin for the Gyeonggi-do tourists from abroad.

It is right that Suwon is the biggest city of over 1.1 million population in Gyeonggi-do province(Gyeonggi-do province has the population of 12million that the largest in South Korea, followed by Seoul of 10million).

But,
Incheon is not a part of the Gyoeonggi-do province. Acutally Incheon is another major provincial government that is surrounding Seoul, the capital city of South Korea with Gyeonggi-do province(Though this may not be important for the visitors to Korea, because they cannot recognize any exceptional difference in the peoples, languages, and so on).
But it's different story to the tourists to get information on the areas.
If you really want to get a bunch of good travel information on the real Gyeonggi-do province. You can visit the tourism information portal(http://english.ethankyou.co.kr/) that Gyeonggi Tourism Organization is running.
Gyeonggi Tourism Organization is 100% fully local government invested public company that specialized in tourism industry.

_BELOW : the current information on the Gyeonggi-do province on the Lonely Planet.com_

The original contents that introducing Gyoenggi-do province on Lonely Plant.com

The province of Gyeonggi-do hugs Seoul like a reverse letter ‘C, ’ providing excellent day trips or longer expeditions to some of Korea’s gems. Often overlooked due to its proximity to the Bladerunner-esque cityscape that is Seoul, Gyeonggi-do is a varied province: rivers and rice fields, shrines and scenery, timeless temples and ever-present smiles. Slip into the quiet fishing life on a West Sea island, walk on a deserted beach or a wave-smoothed mud flat, or go inland and take in fantastic vistas from hiking destinations such as Bukhansan National Park or Namhan Sanseong Provincial Park.

For a chilling reminder of cold-war animosities and the almost anachronistic threat of war, hop on a DMZ-bound tour bus and catch glimpses of North Korea, barbed wire and the paradox of Panmunjom. Shoppers looking to take home a piece of Korean art should hit the Korean Folk Village or Icheon Ceramic Village. When you’ve seen enough museums, travellers with children can enjoy Seoul Grand Park and Everland, or hit the slopes in winter for great skiing.

Suwon and Incheon are the area’s biggest cities; the latter has its own local government and telephone code and is the port for ferries to nearby islands, Jejudo, and even China. Ganghwado, a nearby island, is still relatively unspoilt, and has dolmen (ancient tombs), a mountain-top altar, fortifications and an interesting history, making it a perfect place to recharge your batteries if Seoul’s nightlife starts to wear thin.
