With a scenic view overlooking the West Sea, Songam Art Museum is a French-style building located along the coastal road at the foot of Cheongnyangsan Mountain in Incheon.

The gallery was built to house a private collection of antiques collected by the late Chairman Lee Hoerim. The gallery, together with all its relics and real-estate, was later donated to Incheon Metropolitan City and introduced as Songam Art Museum.

Even before being donated, the gallery has been making contributions to the progress of research regarding the art and culture of Korea and China by displaying both Korean and Chinese antiques related to Korean culture. After its renovation and conversion into a museum, Songam Art Museum added a repository of Korean paintings and ceramic wares. Through continuous investment and research work, the museum is now a cultural space well-appreciated by citizens and tourists alike.

Memorial Hall for Incheon Landing Operation is a museum commemorating the event where during the early stages of the Korean War (1950-1953), South Korean and UN forces, although initially pushed back by North Korean forces, landed in Incheon on September 15, 1950, under the command of General MacArthur (1880-1964), thereby reversing the tide of the conflict. The memorial hall features exhibitions related to the Korean War and sculptures depicting the Incheon Landing Operation. From the observatory, visitors can enjoy views of the Hwanghae Sea and the city of Incheon.
