Bucheon-si sits inside Gyeonggi-do, South Korea and ranks #4 of 28 cities in Gyeonggi-do by population. Every distance on this page is a straight-line Great Circle (haversine) measurement — the shortest path a plane or signal would take between two GPS points, not the longer road-and-turns route a driver would actually cover. View the nearby cities, nearby states or nearby countries tables above.
Scroll down and this page also ranks the states closest to Bucheon-si and the countries closest to Bucheon-si by the same straight-line measurement. For the complete national picture, see every country bordering or near South Korea. Handy for cross-border import/export planning, scouting a new travel corridor or lining up emergency logistics across Asia.
Next to every distance sits a compass heading from Bucheon-si, plotted on the 16-point rose (N, NNE, NE, ENE, E, ESE, SE, SSE, S, SSW, SW, WSW, W, WNW, NW, NNW). The rotating arrow marks the bearing angle (0°–360°, where 0°/360° is due north) — see it in action in the cities, states and countries tables above. It's the same reference pilots, sailors and long-haul truckers use to picture the layout around Bucheon-si at a glance.
If you're stringing together stops in Gyeonggi-do, the neighboring cities table above doubles as a rough day-trip planner from Bucheon-si — shortest hops first. Pair it with the population and area data to gauge which nearby stop is worth the detour.

Every figure on this page is a Great Circle (haversine) distance — a straight aerial line between the GPS center of Bucheon-si and the GPS center of the other place, not a driving distance. It's the same math airlines use to estimate flight paths. View the Bucheon-si map for the exact coordinates behind these numbers.
It's a straight line — the shortest possible path between two points on Earth's surface, ignoring roads, terrain and detours. Actual driving distance from Bucheon-si will almost always run longer, sometimes significantly, depending on the road network. Treat the figures here as a quick planning benchmark, not a substitute for a live route from a mapping or navigation app.
It's the bearing from Bucheon-si to that place, plotted on a 16-point compass rose. The rotating arrow marks the degree bearing (0°–360°), where 0°/360° is due north, 90° east, 180° south and 270° west. See it applied in the cities, states and countries tables above.
Distribution planners use it to pick warehouse or hub sites within easy reach of Bucheon-si. Sales and field teams use it to sequence visits by drive distance instead of guessing.
