The athletes' village having 2,220 units in 22 new apartment buildings can accommodate about 15,000 athletes and officials from 45 countries participating in the Sept. 19-Oct. 4 Games, the organizers said.
The village, located in Guwol-dong, central Incheon, will officially open on Sept. 12, a week before the opening of the Games, they said.
A cafeteria in the village can hold up to 3,500 people and will serve 548 items in total on a five-day rolling period, they said.
Incheon will be the third South Korean city to host the Asian Games, following the capital city of Seoul in 1986 and Busan in 2002.
