Machine-translated from Korean. Show original

Bulggwangcheon Stream, about 9.21 km long, flows from Bulgwang-dong in Eunpyeong-gu through Yeokchon-dong, Eungam-dong, Jeungsan-dong, Bukgajwa-dong in Seodaemun-gu, and Seongsan-dong in Mapo-gu. It took on its present appearance in 2002 when sewage prevention facilities were installed and groundwater was pumped up to make water flow. It takes its name from the nearby Bulgwangsa Temple, and at the upper reaches of Bulggwangcheon there are waterside stands and a fountain show. Bicycle paths and walking trails are well laid out along the stream, and various trees and ponds have been planted, so visitors can enjoy diverse seasonal landscaping and observe the restored ecosystem, making it a beloved walking course among local residents.
