2026 Incheon Wondosaje & Nakseom Festival
Oct 24, 2026 · Incheon
Overview
Since ancient times, Korean ancestors performed rites at famous mountains, rivers, and seas, praying for the peace and well-being of the nation and local communities. For rites by the sea, during the Joseon dynasty such ceremonies were held in places like Incheon, Suncheon, and Gangneung. Among these, the Incheon-dohobu (Incheon's regional government office) held a rite to the god of the West Sea at Wondo (Nakseom). The Incheon Wondosaje refers to the rite held each spring and autumn at a shrine called Wondosa, built on Wondo during the Joseon dynasty, where Incheon's local magistrate gathered the spirit tablets of several islands and performed the ceremony on behalf of the king. The 2026 Incheon Wondosaje & Nakseom Festival is a festival held by Michuhol-gu that combines a reenactment of this ritual with a village festival featuring a harmony-themed street parade (gillori).
