Seoullo 7017

view from the elevated park

Seoullo 7017 is the latest free attraction in Seoul. It used to be an overpass built in 1970. In 2017 it was transformed to public park in 2017 (hence 7017) . It is accessible via Seoul Station (Exit 2) or Nandaemun.  It is full of trees and there is cafe  + tourist information counter available.

The path -

Alternatively can ride subway from Seoul Station to Hoehyeon ( Nandaemun Market)  but you can save 1250 won  and burn some calories if you use this Seoullo 7017 pathway. Plus it is feel refreshing surrounding by trees in the middle of the city.

It is July but these 2 small trees looks like it is covered with snow

Seoullo was featured in Running Man but I cant recall which episode. Here is the screen cap

Backstory :

In May 2017 , there was I Seoul u concert in Kuala Lumpur. It is a free concert promoting Seoul consists of SM Singer - Red Velvet, NCT and Yesung. My first source of Seoullo is from that event, it was recommended by Red Velvet lol. The marketing strategy work! as I end up here lol. I think the view will be nicer ( and cooler ) in Autumn and Spring .
