Korea

CheongGyeCheon Stream and shopping
a vision by a past Seoul mayor to transform an underground stream and drainage area into a serene outdoor stream showcase that
would be a gathering place for art, events and people to enjoy walking alone and together along the water.  Water is one of the
four important Korean earth elements that all need to be in balance.  At the head of the stream is a fountain and waterfall along
with a plaza for gatherings and events.  We met up with SungGoo our friend from Califronia that lives in Seoul.
