Cheonggyecheon
청계천
Beautiful stream running through downtown Seoul
A stream that divides the central Seoul neighborhoods of Jongno-gu and Jung-gu. There are a plaza and a waterfront space, both of which are also used as resting and cultural spaces for citizens. The 22 bridges across the river shine with colorful lights at night and are also well known as a night view spot in Seoul, with a spectacular candlelight fountain with three-colored lights and a two-tier waterfall that falls to 4m below. It is recommended to stroll through a walking trail with stunning natural scenery, and there are photo spots at many locations, such as stepping stones and murals
