Walking around Seoul ,Cheonggyecheon Stream & Cheonggye Plaza (청계천 & 청계광장)

                       Walking around Seoul

                                  Cheonggyecheon Stream 

Until it was restored in 2005, Cheonggyecheon Stream existed only as a neglected 

watercourse hidden by an overpass. Today, it has been transformed into a haven 

of natural beauty amidst the bustle of city life. 

Narae Bridge, expressing a butterfly in flight, and Gwanggyo Bridge, symbolizing 

the harmony of the past and future, are just two of the more than twenty beautiful 

bridges that cross the stream. The ‘Rhythmic Wall Stream’, lined with fine marble, 

sculptures, and Korea’s 8th stone building, Palseokdam, adorn the 

Cheonggyecheon Stream. 

Cheonggyecheon Stream passes close to Deoksugung Palace, Seoul Plaza, the 

Sejong Center, Insa-dong Street, Changdeokgung Palace, and Changgyeonggung 

Palace, allowing visitors to easily visit major tourist sites after a leisurely stroll 

along the stream. 

Cheonggye Plaza 

Cheonggye Plaza in Sejong-ro is situated at the fountainhead of Cheonggyecheon 

Stream. From Dong-A Ilbo Building, the starting point of Cheonggyecheon Stream, 

Cheonggye Plaza stretches all the way to Sindapcheolgyo Bridge. The Plaza is 

roughly 160m long and 50m wide and has a beautiful fountain, an artificial 

waterfall, and a miniature replica of Cheonggyecheon Stream, as well as a walking 

path. The area commemorates the Cheonggyecheon Stream Restoration Project, 

and also symbolizes gathering, harmony, peace, and unity. 

Cheonggye Plaza is roughly 2,500 square meters and is located at the starting 

point of Cheonggyecheon Stream. The square, created based on the design of 

Korean traditional bojagi (a colorful wrapping cloth), features the elegant beauty of 

traditional stonework that is colorful, yet tasteful. The Plaza also includes a model 

of Cheonggyecheon that provides visitors with a bird's-eye view of the formerly 

restored Cheonggyecheon Stream. At the Plaza, there are plaques that provide 

detailed commentaries on the 22 bridges that span the stream as well as a number 

of graceful fountains that add to the ambience of the area.

After completing Cheonggye Plaza, Seoul Metropolitan Government designated the 

area as a vehicle-free zone on holidays, providing more leisure space for 

pedestrians. Since then, the waterfront areas of Cheonggyecheon Stream, and the 

surrounding streets have become popular places for those seeking refreshment 

and a variety of cultural experiences. A favorite of many is Candle Fountain, which 

features the magnificent synchronicity of three different lighting fixtures and a 4 

meter-high, two-tiered waterfall. Along the two sides of the waterfall are 

Palseokdam'(wishing wells) made of 8 different stones from each of the nation's 

8provinces. 

Cheonggye Plaza never goes to sleep: visitors can enjoy the fantastic display of 

light and water even at night.

hot Place in seoul (Lotte World,seoul hot place)

                             seoul hot place 

                                Lotte World

seoul hot Place for Thrilling Entertainment Fun and Rides

Located in the heart of the city, Lotte World is the perfect spot for entertainment 

and sightseeing. It is a theme park filled with thrilling rides, an ice rink, different 

kinds of parades as well as a folk museum, a lake, and much more. About 

6,000,000 visitors are welcomed every year, and about 10% of the visitors are 

foreigners. The structure inside makes use of the natural sunlight, and it is open 

for visitors all year round, regardless of the weather. 

Lotte World is divided into a '’Adventure’ theme once you are inside the building, 

and outside is a ‘Magic Island’ theme next to Seokchonhosu Lake. Lotte World 

Adventure has certain districts representing different countries with various kinds 

of facilities and souvenir shops. You can enjoy watching parades, numerous films, 

laser shows, and a variety of international cuisines even during the holidays. 

Magic Island is situated outdoors, where the dazzling Magic Castle is located as 

well as thrilling high-altitude rides that you can't experience elsewhere. Be sure to 

also check out the peaceful walking trail around the lake.

One of the major reasons tourists are attracted to Lotte World is the amusement 

rides. The Gyro Drop and Gyro Swing are the top pleasers– a steep drop with an 

altitude of 70 meters, or taste the thrilling sensation of being inside a tornado. You 

may need to take your shoes off before you get on since mostly likely they will 

come off during the ride. The Flume Ride is a long boat with a high-altitude wave, 

and the Spanish Pirate Ship swings at an electrifying 75 degrees. Besides the 

excitement of these rides, Lotte World also contains a variety of parades and laser 

shows. The 200 performers sing and dance to music in the World Carnival Parade, 

which adds excitement to the theme park. 

After enjoying the rides, don't miss skating on the ice rink as well as visiting the 

museum. The ice rink is situated indoors on the B3 floor, and is opened 

throughout the year. Its pleasant atmosphere is perfect for family and couples to 

enjoy. The hours are from 10:30 am to 10:30 pm, and runs even during the 

holidays. Its facilities include a restaurant, a ticket booth, a snack bar, a sports 

shop, a skate rental service, and a changing room. 

On the other hand, The Folk Museum is the most popular museum for foreign 

tourists. Folk cultural items are displayed and the items go back 5,000 years in 

Korean history as well as miniature villages, and a playground. The museum layout 

was arranged to attract the visitors' attention and the displays are easily 

understandable. In addition, audio-visual devices and miniature models will make 

it more enjoyable.
