Do you know that there's a long river/stream right in the middle of Seoul city? It located in a very busy area that full with tall office building around it. You can go here by subway because the stream is really long until it connect with the few stations. So you can stop at few nearest station and the stream will be just few mins walking from the exit. There's so many people chilling along the streams because its actually calming even its in the middle of busy street. Please go here once if you're in Seoul. #seoul #tripblazers #mytripvlog #southkorea

#seoul Cheonggyecheon Stream is my must go places in Seoul and a stream that flows through Seoul from 
Gwanghwamun to Dongdaemun.

Just like the Singapore river it went through a great restoration process to become how it looks like today.

The stream used to be covered with trash and waste but at present day, it has became a popular recreational activity spots and even became a clean natural habitats for some fish, birds and insects.

This is a very nice walk and photo taking spot at Cheonggyeon stream, this is one of the recommended spot to visit when you’re in Korea. You will see a lot of people taking photos here because of the nice waterfall and beautiful flowers. This is a relatively short walk, maybe about 39 minutes. It was so nice and cooling when we were here. We also spotted alot of animals like stork, squirrels, ducks and birds! I was told that you can dip your feet in the water as well ( I’ve seen some people do that). There are alot of cafes and restaurants around this area as well. Or alternatively, you can pack food and eat here to enjoy the nice scenery and the water sound.

During my recent trip to Seoul, I had the pleasure of visiting Cheonggyecheon, a beautiful urban stream in the heart of Seoul. Before my visit, I had heard many praises about this unique urban renewal project, but experiencing it firsthand exceeded my expectations. In the midst of the bustling cityscape, Cheonggyecheon provides a serene and peaceful atmosphere that's hard to find elsewhere. As I strolled along the 10.9-kilometer-long stretch, I was amazed by the harmony of the modern and traditional elements. The well-maintained walkways, charming bridges, and art installations contrasted beautifully with the surrounding historical buildings and ancient stone walls. I particularly enjoyed the murals that showcased South Korea's rich history and culture. The stream itself was remarkably clean and clear, making it a perfect habitat for various fish and aquatic plants. The sound of flowing water had a soothing effect, and the lush vegetation on both sides provided a welcome respite from the concrete jungle of Seoul. I also loved the stepping stones at various points, allowing visitors to cross the stream while maintaining a close connection with nature. Throughout my walk, I encountered many locals and tourists alike, enjoying the space in various ways. Some were simply relaxing, while others were jogging, cycling, or practicing photography. The atmosphere was welcoming and inclusive, making it a perfect spot for socializing or spending quality time with loved ones. At night, Cheonggyecheon transformed into a magical wonderland with colorful lights reflecting on the water's surface. The illuminated bridges and art installations added an enchanting ambiance to the area. This vibrant setting made it an ideal location for a romantic evening or a leisurely night stroll #seoul

#seoul 📍 cheonggyecheon stream One of the touristic attractions in seoul. It is close to the famous gwangjang market so my route recommendation is going to market afternoon eat delicious food and at night have a walk by the stream. The view is also good in the morning but i recommend going in the evening and see the lights. #summervacation Stream is not that long you can walk for 10 minutes to finish all stream and look at the surroundings

Coming along the Cheonggyecheon stream , the entire river is designed to provide tranquillity and peace. There are art events held here every now and then. If you walk, you can start from Gwanghwamun square until Han river, more than 10 km long. There are sculptures, waterfalls and rainbows along the way. The rainbow are actually lights when the river lights up at night. You will also pass through many bridges from below Please grant my wish to revisit Seoul in 2023! #2023travelwish #mytripvlog #seoul #korea

A popular river is streaming down Seoul and it is like our Singapore river along Robertson Quay. You can take a long walk here and visit all the restaurants along the river. When I did my hike, I started on the wrong side and hiked a long way before reaching the most beautiful area of the Cheonggyecheon stream. The best part of Cheonggyecheon stream is just right opposite HiKR ground and you can use Cheonggye Plaza as a landmark. I also hike my way from Cheonggyecheon stream to Seoul plaza. It is fairly easy to walk and the terrain here is mostly flat ground. Please grant my wish to revisit Seoul in 2023! #2023travelwish #mytripvlog #seoul #korea

If you are a Seoul regular, you will know about Cafe Knotted. At HiKR ground, there is a new branch here and it has no queue. So you can come here during the day and buy their famous pastries and enjoy the view from the top. On the 5th floor, you can go out to the terrace and enjoy a lovely view of the Cheonggyecheon river stream. This river is also one of the must visit places when you are in Seoul. Moreover, HiKR is just right opposite the best part of this river stream. I hope I have influenced you more than enough to come over to HiKR ground.

For K-drama lovers, there are so many famous K-dramas and all these high ranking dramas are right here. The K drama zone is located on the 3rd floor. It is also a VR zone and be sure to wear these VR goggles and enjoy a close up session with the actor/actress. They will bring you to the filming location and you can interact with them. When I was here, the VR k-drama was on Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha so I followed Kim Seon-ho and explored the Gongjin seaside village. It was so real and I felt like I was right here. Please remember to wear a protective layer on your face to keep the VR goggles clean. Please grant my wish to revisit Seoul in 2023! #2023travelwish #mytripvlog #seoul #korea

HiKR ground is open everyday from 10am to 9pm and you can stay here as long as you wish. Come to the 3rd floor and it is a museum, it has a different vibe from the K-pop zone. Over here, you can take your time to do colouring as well then you can scan it to send it to the media wall. At the corner on this floor, you can also check your health and the machine will analyse your habits and prescribe you with a hot korean tea. There Is also a facial analysis too, it will show you results of your skin conditions. Please grant my wish to revisit Seoul in 2023! #2023travelwish #mytripvlog #seoul #korea

This is a new place and I was lucky to know about it. It opened recently in July 2022 and I visited Seoul in September 2022. It is a large building with 5 storeys, each storey has a different theme. This place is set up and catering to tourists. You can learn more about hallyu, interact with VR (virtual reality) and check out the latest trends. The best thing of all, there are no admission charges and it is free. I hope you hear it from me first. Check out the K-pop zone on the 2nd floor. There are many photo opportunities here and you can adjust the lightning and music and it will be reflected on the media wall.
