Travel: Cheonggyecheon Stream in Korea

It was originally a neglected watercourse hidden by an overpass but today, the Cheonggyecheon Stream in downtown Seoul has been transformed into a beautiful and serene park in the middle of the city.

Cheonggyecheon is an 8.4 km creek flowing west to east through downtown Seoul and passes close to other tourist spots like the Deoksugung Palace, Seoul Plaza, the Sejong Center, Insa-dong Street, Changdeokgung Palace, and Changgyeonggung Palace.

Here you will come across almost two dozens overhead bridges like the Narae Bridge, expressing a butterfly in flight, and Gwanggyo Bridge, symbolizing the harmony of the past and future. There’s also a mini art gallery under one of the bridges and so many photo opportunities along the way. The whole stream, by the way, illuminates at night.

If you are soul searching, I highly recommend a stroll in Cheonggyecheon Stream!
