1. Notes for an Eunpyeong-gu Stay
- Transit base: Lodging is limited to areas near Line 3 (Nokbeon, Bulgwang, Yeonsinnae) and Line 6 (Bulgwang, Yeonsinnae, Yeokchon, Gusan) stations. Travel times depend on where you stay, so check routes in a map app.
- Getting to Eunpyeong Hanok Village: The subway does not reach the village directly, so you transfer to a bus. Take bus 701, 7211 or 7723 from Exit 3 of Yeonsinnae Station, or bus 7723 or 7211 from Exit 4 of Gupabal Station (Line 3), and get off at the Hanago·Jingwansa·Samcheonsa Entrance stop. Check routes and running times in a map app.
- Airport access: The route assumes Incheon Airport by AREX (Airport Railroad), transferring to Line 6 at Digital Media City Station. Yeokchon, Bulgwang, Yeonsinnae and Gusan are on Line 6, while Nokbeon is on Line 3, so double-check the route in a map app.

Which is the best station to stay near: Nokbeon, Bulgwang, Yeonsinnae, Yeokchon or Gusan?
Yeonsinnae is served by both Line 3 and Line 6 and is close to where you catch the bus to Eunpyeong Hanok Village (Exit 3), which makes it convenient for this plan. It still depends on your lodging and preferences, so check the route in a map app.
How do I get to Eunpyeong Hanok Village?
Take bus 701, 7211 or 7723 from Exit 3 of Yeonsinnae Station, or bus 7723 or 7211 from Exit 4 of Gupabal Station on Line 3, and get off at the Hanago·Jingwansa·Samcheonsa Entrance stop. Bus routes and running times can change, so check a map app before you go.
How do I get from Incheon Airport to my lodging?
One option is AREX, transferring to Line 6 at Digital Media City Station. Nokbeon is on Line 3, so an extra transfer may be needed. Check the route in a map app before departing.
What about luggage before check-in and after check-out?
Ask your accommodation in advance whether it can hold your bags, or use the airport luggage storage service. On Day 3 the plan assumes you collect your bags after check-out and head to Incheon Airport.
