The Port of Pohang, located at the southeastern coast of the Korean Peninsula, is a fine natural habor well protected from the open sea.
Handling more than 33million tons a year of mostly mineral ore and iron and steel products, it has greatly contributed to the steady development of our nation's economy as the main gateway to Kyungsang-bukdo province
It is well-known fact that the Port of Pohang has been one of the leading industrial ports in the Republic of Korea(R.O.K) due to Pohang Iron and steel Company(POSCO) and its related industrial complex in the port's hinterland area.
