Visiting Wolmido Pororo & Tayo Theme Park: Fun Indoor Activities for Young Kids

Visiting Wolmido Pororo & Tayo Theme Park

 Fun Indoor Activities for Young Kids

Wolmido Pororo & Tayo Theme Park does have one downside — it’s a bit far to get to. But other than that, it’s all positives!

Most importantly, it’s a place where kids can play all day without getting bored. It’s perfect for children who haven’t started elementary school yet, making it an ideal spot for Liam’s age.

Liam loved it so much that during the three months we were in Korea, we visited the park three times! Especially in winter, when it’s too cold to spend a lot of time outdoors, Wolmido Pororo & Tayo Theme Park offers a warm, indoor playground spread across four floors. Themed around the popular animated characters Pororo and Tayo, it’s a children’s indoor amusement park that’s both fun and engaging.

Each floor is filled with various rides and interactive play areas, creating a perfect multi-level space where kids can have a blast and explore safely.

When we arrived at the Wolmido Pororo & Tayo Theme Park, we exchanged our tickets for wristbands at the entrance. After putting them on, we walked right into a fun photo zone. As always, Liam couldn’t resist grabbing a map—he never skips checking one no matter where we go!

Wolmido Pororo & Tayo Theme Park Tickets

Booking tickets online in advance is much cheaper!
We used Naver Booking all three times—it consistently offered the best prices. The discount rates vary depending on the day and time, so just enter your desired date to see the exact price.

Although the site said tickets would be sent via KakaoTalk, and my Kakao account is linked to my Australian phone number, I used a Korean number for the purchase and was a bit worried. Thankfully, all three times the tickets came through just fine via text message.

I bought the tickets the night before each visit, and right after payment, I received a link via text to access or download the tickets. Super convenient!

How to Get There Using Public Transportation

Take Subway Line 1 and get off at either Incheon Station or Dongincheon Station. From there, catch a bus heading to Wolmido or Wolmido Culture Street, and get off right in front of the park or near the bus stop.

(The exact bus stop might vary slightly depending on the bus you take, but they’re all very close to each other.)

From the bus stops at Incheon Station or Dongincheon Station, you can take bus number 2 or 45 to reach Wolmido Pororo & Tayo Theme Park.

On the third floor, there were lots of different rides, and Liam’s favorites were the hoop ride and the dropping ball catcher — so fun!

But surprisingly, Liam wasn’t really interested in most of the rides…

When you enter, each child gets two character coloring sheets. After coloring them, you can scan the pictures using a special machine, and the drawings come to life on a big screen on the wall, moving around! It was fascinating for me, but the kids absolutely loved it.

There’s also a performance hall where, if you arrive on time and line up, you can watch a 30-minute show. Liam really enjoyed watching and even followed along with the dance moves. The second time we went, we sat in the front row, but there was so much bubble foam and artificial snow falling that it got all over our clothes and hair — which was a bit uncomfortable. Sitting around the middle rows seems to be the best spot. The hall is small, so sitting toward the back isn’t bad either, but kids usually prefer being closer to the stage.

There’s also a water play area where groups go in at set times!

You need to change clothes before going in, and the rental fee for the outfit is 3,000 KRW. It was great because Liam didn’t get his own clothes wet and could play comfortably.

The playtime lasts for 30 minutes, and it’s such a fun spot that he really loved!

There’s also a kids’ café area where Liam spent a good amount of time playing. One of the coolest things there was a magnetic fishing game—when you catch a fish, it wiggles as if it’s really alive! Liam loved it so much that he kept fishing for quite a while.

The Pororo-themed section features little houses of the characters from the show. It was fun to wander in and out, exploring all around.

Liam’s absolute favorite spot, though, was the trampoline!

Most visitors usually head straight to the rides on the third floor right after entering, but Liam wasn’t really interested in those. Instead, he loved running and jumping around on the trampoline and exploring different areas. The trampoline was huge and felt very safe, which was great.

There were also Tayo-themed rides like cars, trains, and even an airplane experience, but Liam wasn’t into those at all. We didn’t get to try any of the Tayo activities, haha.

The dining area was split into two sections, so it didn’t feel crowded, and the food came out quickly. The taste wasn’t anything special, but it was fine for a quick, simple meal.

Wolmido itself has developed a lot as a tourist spot, so besides Pororo & Tayo Theme Park, there are plenty of other places to check out.

It seemed perfect for a one- or two-day trip, with plenty to do all day. You can take the bus to Incheon Chinatown and the mural village, and there’s even a new National Maritime Museum in Wolmido, which looks like a fun place to visit too.
