Basic Concept

We will restore the natural features of Han River and Tancheon area to develop as tourism resource representing global Seoul

  • To create a clean waterfront park city, we will establish confluence area as ecological hub,
    and enhance connectivity with upstream ecological landscape conservation areas.

    Creating ecologically healthy natural-type streams
    • Linking longitudinal and
      transverse ecological axes between
      Han River and Tancheon
    • Creating wildlife
      habitats based on target
      species selection
    • Improving
      floodplain structure
      considering river's
      hydraulic characteristics
    • Establishing buffer zones
      with ecological landscape
      conservation areas
  • An ecological axis is created along the river channel, and the upper and lower ends of the embankment are created as cultural spaces to secure ecological/cultural longitudinal continuity

    Securing open space for citizens in harmony with nature
    • Longitudinal ecological survey
      based on
      Creation of water-friendly space
    • Introduction of
      aquatic botanical garden
      for nature education
    • Introducing a water
      performance culture linked
      to the waterfron
    • Introducing art and
      exhibition programs

      linked to circular trails
  • Actively utilizing the landscape along the Han River and Tancheon Stream
    to improve existing structures and create landmark facilities

    Improved accessibility to Tancheon and Han River
    • Construction of a new pedestrian-only bridge
      connecting the disconnected
      eastern and western
      sides of Tancheon
    • Introducing a circular walkway
      encompassing
      the waterside and embankment
    • Building a bicycle network
      connecting Tancheon
      and the Han River
    • Plan for a gentle
      access road that
      anyone can access
