Han River

The Han River runs through Seoul and divides the city into its northern and southern region. In Korea¡¯s history this river has played an important role in the development of the capital city. In current times, this river serves as a place of escape, where people can go to in order to enjoy the weather, have a nice walk, or indulge in the cruise. Along the 41.5 kilometer river, are many parks where people can participate in soccer, volleyball, basketball, swimming, water skiing, yachting, boating, and fishing. The depth of the water averages 2.5 meters and its width averages 175 meters. The Han River Pleasure Boat takes people on a cruise along the river; visiting historic sites as well as picturesque views. The boat can be accessed at four different locations: Yoido, Chamsil, Dooksum, and Yanghwa. The boat is also quite a sight to see at nighttime when its lights are turned on to illuminate the river beneath it.
