Cheonggye Stream Waterfall

"29 Jan 2009" - Waterfall at the beginning of the Cheonggyecheon in downtown Seoul, South Korea. The Cheonggye Stream is a 5.9km creek that flows right through the heart of downtown Seoul. During Seoul's rapid post-war development, the creek area turned slummy and it was covered with concrete to build an elevated highway over it. However, a massive urban renewal and restoration project began in 2003 to beautify the site. Since it's completion in 2005, Cheonggyecheon has become popular place for taking a relaxing, leisiurely walk for people living in and visiting Seoul.
