Seoul Lantern Festival
서울 빛 초롱 축제
Enjoy a romantic festival showcasing vibrant Hanji paper lanterns
A festival held on the Cheonggyecheon Stream. Every November, the Cheonggyecheon Stream is illuminated with soft lanterns to create a romantic atmosphere. You can see giant sculptures made of Hanji, a traditional Korean paper, and each year, the lanterns are organized around a specific theme, such as Seoul tourist attractions or Korean history.
A great place to walk while admiring the lanterns that illuminate the city's darkness. The gently flowing water and the artwork that illuminates the area are both visually and auditorily appealing. It's a great place to take a photo with your favorite artwork or simply relax and enjoy the holiday spirit.
