Best ceramics museum I have been to. Interesting Biennale work - wide range and lots of on site workshops. Lovely environment and just extremely well set out.

Smallish number of shops, about 50+. Prefer Mashiko in Japan. If you hunt around, you can find something reasonable for $50. A good piece costs about $200-300. I took a subway to Gangbyeon, then took express bus to Icheon, then took a taxi to village. The express bus passes by the village. It goes into the mountains, then makes a right turn on the freeway, passing a store with large black pots, then a fleet of autos for sale. On return, took a bus back (bus is on the main road), but got off too soon,so walked back to bus station. Note that you have to stand by the bus stop to get a ride. Driver doesn't stop if you're sitting down. Ask your hotel to write down Icheon bus terminal in Korean so you can ask for directions or a taxi ride.
Note: Coex mall is a few stops pass Gangbyeon and has good restaurants.

I am an English teacher in Icheon. My school had it's birthday, so I decided to go to the ceramic festival. It was a great opportunity to walk around and take photographs. Seolbong Park is right beside where the festival is held and it is quite a breathtaking site in Icheon. I love going there to take photographs and take a walk.

This place is amazingly beautiful and peaceful. You are surrounded by art. Located on the grounds is a large outdoor kiln and behind that a body of water. In the body of water are wonderful porcelain pots of various size and shape. the works of art displayed out side are beautiful. My favorite the the metal tree with porcelain bells. This place is truly a wonderful place to visit. You can see the cities passion for ceramic all over. On the mountain sides are porcelain places and the bridges hold ceramic pieces. You truly should not miss out on this.

The newly opened art center at the top of the complex is extraordinary. If you have any time at all go to see this 'expo'
