Dandong Travel Forum

Does anybody know from where the Dandong ferry to Incheon departs and where to by the tickets, preferably directly from the ferry company?
My chinese is very limited so I don't expect to be able to ask (and understand the answer) just anybody on the street. I´m planning on taking this trip in april 2008 and I hope there´s no trouble getting a ticket during my 4 day stay in Dandong...

Looks like it leaves 3pm on Sundays and Thrusdays (but I also saw a post that said it leaves at 2pm). You could call a day or two in advance. Looks like the information number is 0415-710-0228

Any of the hotels would provide assistance to call them.

Thanks.

The thing is I won't be staying at a fancy hotel, I'll just be coming out of the DPRK and will stay at the cheapest hotel I can find. The biggest problem really is getting to the actual place from where the boat leaves.

Hope you enjoy your trip into DPRK, I did. Very surreal experience.

My experience in Dandong was that even the least likely of people could speak some english. But you should have good luck if you go to the tourist information booth in front of the imfamous Broken Bridge.

The terminal is actually about 35km from the city. Because Dandong is on the Yalu River and the open ocean is still a bit further south.

Thanks...I'm sure it will work out just fine...
