A Peaceful Stroll Through Seoul: Discovering Cheonggyecheon

#newyearnewtrip #travelanywhere #myitinerary While exploring Seoul, I stumbled upon a serene escape in the heart of the city—Cheonggyecheon. This 13.7-kilometer-long artificial stream flows through the center of Seoul, offering a peaceful retreat from the bustling streets. Starting from the foot of Namsan Mountain, it winds through vibrant neighborhoods, and the stretch within the city center (about 5.8 kilometers) is perfect for a relaxing walk. I was amazed by how seamlessly nature blends with the urban landscape here. The stream is lined with lush greenery, modern sculptures, and gentle footbridges that make it an ideal spot for both locals and tourists. As I wandered along the water, I couldn’t help but marvel at how the city has embraced its natural beauty in such an unexpected way.
