The weather is turning to summer and Seoul people think this is an extremely suitable time to go camping at the Han River!
The Han River, also called the Hangang, is a symbol of Seoul, Korea, and a popular place to spend a day for most Seoulites especially during the hot hot summer. Year-round, visitors can be found biking, walking, running, picnicking, or just enjoying the view. The Seoul City Government has done a lot to make the parks that line the river all the more visitor-friendly in the past decade and there are now art installations to be found, skateboard parks to be enjoyed, outdoor concert venues, museums, and just so much more to do, aside from the fantastic swimming pools that are also there.
There are three parks in the Han River: Yeouido Hangang Park (여의도 한강공원), Ttukseom Hangang Park (뚝섬한강공원), and Banpo Hangang Park (반포 한강공원). Among them three parks, Banpo Park, although the farthest from the train station gate, has many interesting attractions and activities offered for a fun-filled trip. Last week, we have paid a visit to this lovely place to enjoy our weekend after a tiring work week. We had such an amazing time and thought you might want to visit the place too!
