"Located below street level, the public space Cheonggyecheon offers an easy escape from the hustle and bustle of downtown Seoul . The area is part of a massive urban renewal project in which an old elevated highway was cleared to reveal the stream below. To find the entrance, look for Claes Oldenburg’s sculpture Spring Tower , which resembles a giant unicorn horn, and from there you can enjoy a serene 3.6-mile walk that meanders past art installations, graceful fountains, and green rest areas. Duck out at any point on one of the 22 overhead bridges that cross the stream, or walk to the end of the trail and visit the free Cheonggyecheon Museum to learn more about the area."

A stunning river! The river is serene and wildlife is everywhere. I was fortunate enough to see an egret hunting!

A must visit location in Seoul especially on a good weather day. Basically a nice walking park in the middle of the city next to a stream which makes you feel transplanted from busy city life. On weekends there are plenty of street performances as well.

During the day is a chill place but turns so romantic and relax at night! You can find some people singing, also able to bring the food and drinks to sit and enjoy the vibes along the side.

Love this long river, the environment will made you feel you're hiking, listening the rhythm of rive, the sound of birds and enjoy the breeze air. It's amazing, as the river located at the middle of Seoul central, a most commercial area.

Although it's been a long time, the memories of walking along Cheonggyecheon with a friend, accompanied by a senior from DAU Busan was impressive. The water is very clean and there are several small rapids, with fish swimming in them. Indeed, we did not walk 11 KM, only half of it, and then visited several interesting objects such as Statue of Admiral Yi Sun-Sin, Gwanghwamun Square and others. What an unforgettable experience.

Nice place in the middle of the city to take a walk or to hang out. Very clean and lots of coffee shops right by the stream.
