Gimpo is located in the western part of Gyeonggi-do and lower part of the Han River. As soon as the Ara Waterway in Gyeongin was completed, the area was surrounded by water. Although the area is treated as an island, the eastern part of the island and Gochon-eup are Incheon, and the northern part of the Yangchon-eup is a peninsula close to Seoul.
