So I wanna take the slow boat to China. I know there is a sticky about this, but it doesnt really answer my question. My question is if i take the boat, which is the best port to go to from incheon to get to Beijing as a final destination?

thanks in advance.

Tianjin. I believe there is a high speed train that goes to Beijing from there. Dalian is alright as well Qingdao.

Scroll down to "ferry routes".

Yes, Tianjin - it's about an hour on the train from Tianjin to Beijing. Very fast.

Dalian and Qingdao, while nice places, are very far from Beijing unless you want to fly. Tianjin is conected by a high speed train but the train is from Tianjin and the ferry arrives in Tanggu which is about 40km from Tianjin.
