Found in the north eastern province of Jiangsu, Lianyungang is a coastal town found on the east coast of China. Lianyungang Port is one of the quieter ports in China; there are only two crossings per week, both to Incheon on the north west coast of South Korea and last for around 26 hours. Lianyungang is unique in that its climate is fairly similar all year round, never becoming particularly hot or cold, therefore it has a constant stream of tourism. The natural scenery amid the pleasant climate makes for an idyllic setting, especially in spring when flowers seemingly cover the entirety of the city. Those who enjoy keeping active will enjoy the nearby mountains, particularly the famous Huaguo Mountain, which hosts perfect routes for hiking and offers breath-taking views of the spectacular waterfall. For a more tranquil experience, the natural hot springs are one of the most desired parts of the region and can easily tempt visitors into staying for a few hours. Many tourists end up staying in Lianyungang for a few days longer than expected, mostly because of the beautiful surroundings and luxurious hotels. In the summer, many tourists head to the beach to experience the unforgettable festivals and water sport activities. The city has fairly good transport connections, including the commonly used high speed trains which stop off at both of Lianyungang’s railway stations. There is also a shuttle bus in operation, taking passengers around popular areas of the city, however, it doesn’t stop near the ferry terminal. For transport to the port, it is best advised to get a taxi, which is usually relatively affordable if a price is agreed before entry.
Alongside Incheon International Airport, Incheon Port has established itself as a major international hub of transport around northwest Asia. Belonging to a coastal city in the northwest of South Korea, Incheon Port provided a significant economic boost to South Korea when it opened its port to the rest of the world, creating mass revenue for the tourism and business industries. The population of 3 million, its proximity to the capital city of Seoul and its recent title as South Korea’s Free Economic Zone have all contributed to transform Incheon into a place that thrives on business adventure and innovation. The port area is undergoing a gradual renovation; the refurbishment is due to finish in around 2020 with the intention to increase the traffic between South Korea’s metropolitan area and China. The expansion will likely make Incheon Port a pivotal logistics harbour in the Pan Yellow Sea region. There are already copious ferry routes in operation at Incheon Port, a large selection of them linking South Korea with influential provinces of China. The distance between the two countries, however, obviously makes the crossings considerably longer than average, with most lasting up to 24 hours. Much like the area surrounding the port, the vessels used to carry passengers on the long-haul sailings are of a very high quality; excellent restaurants, cool bars and tranquil bedrooms are all available on board, making for a stress free crossing. There are buses from the Incheon train station that run to the ferry terminal, as well as an abundance of taxis around the city centre.
