Yongin is in the middle of Gyeonggi Province, South Korea, approximately 40 km south of Seoul. It is home to Everland, South Korea's most popular amusement park. Yongin is a large city by area, though the city centre itself is rather small. It is also a very disparate city. The more recently developed areas to the north-west, in Suji-gu, which borders Seongnam's Bundang-gu and the city of Suwon, are more affluent, whereas the more southern areas and the city centre itself are notably less so.
