The Saemangeum sea wall is officially recognized as the longest man-made sea barrier in the world.
The project aims to reclaim approximately 401 square kilometers of land from the sea.
The center utilizes immersive 4D screening technology to explain the history and future vision of the reclaimed area.
The name 'Saemangeum' derives from the historical name 'Mangeum' region combined with 'Sae' (new), signifying a new land of abundance.
The Saemangeum Exhibition Center serves as the primary informational hub for the Saemangeum project, the world's largest land reclamation endeavor. It provides technical insights into the construction of the 33.9-kilometer-long sea wall, which is recognized by the Guinness World Records. The facility features scale models, digital interactive displays, and historical documentation detailing the transformation of tidal flats into industrial and residential zones. Visitors can observe panoramic views of the sea wall and the surrounding reclaimed landscape from the building's elevated vantage points. It functions as an educational resource regarding Korean civil engineering and the environmental management of the Yellow Sea coastal area.

Bring binoculars to better view the massive scale of the sea wall stretching into the horizon.
Check the local weather forecast before visiting, as the site is exposed to strong coastal winds.
Allocate extra time to drive along the sea wall itself, which is a major attraction outside the center.
Do not expect to see a fully completed urban center; much of the area remains under long-term industrial and infrastructure development.
Typically closed on Mondays and during major national holidays.
