See how a successful eco-friendly urban renewal project created a popular tourist spot at Cheonggyecheon Stream. Before the nation's rapid economic development after the war, the district stood as a neglected waterway secluded by an overpass. However, after the renovation and beautification project, it evolved into a modern public recreation space and a haven for natural habitats. Inspect the passing stream from one of two historic bridges--Gwangtonggyo and Supyogyo--and see how it teems with animal and plant life amid a highly urbanized city. You'll find many shops and small businesses here; feel free to pay them a visit and purchase their goods, souvenirs, or services. Put Cheonggyecheon Stream on your schedule, and learn what else deserves a visit by using our Seoul travel itinerary planner.

Quiet and easy to navigate during our morning run along the stream. It’s a morning stroll location for locals as well. Good route for city runs for first time visitors.

I like this place

A river with a cute sidewalk. Nice to stroll along while listening to the sounds of water on good weather.
-
A cool place during hot summer day. A breeze in the city center despite all controversy.
-
Seoul doesn't have park everywhere but Han river and this place would be a good replacement.
-
Pleasant view, nice atmosphere in the heart of Seoul. Good to have a walk alone or with family
