Cheonggyecheon Before |
Cheonggyecheon is a 5.2 mile long, public recreation place in downtown Seoul, restored tremendously as a Seoul city government's 3 year project. The project's biggest achievement has been preserving environment for natural habitats and clean water. Now Cheonggyecheon has become the center of cultural and economic activities.
I participated at an charity event held by Red Cross which promoted awareness about the under-previlieged. I played violin with fellow Red Cross Orchestra members to welcome the people who have participated the event.
While I was at Cheonggyecheon, watching people go by, I felt the beauty of balancing the nature and skyscrapers.. Cheonggyecheon is a great example of the future of modern urban city development model.
