Banpo Hangang Park is located on the southern side of the river centering on Banpo Bridge (Jamsu Bridge) between Hamnam Bridge (upstream) and Dongjak Bridge (downstream). The Rainbow Fountain built on both sides of Banpo Bridge was registered in The Guinness Book of Records in 2008 as the longest bridge fountain in the world with a total length of 1,140 meters. At night, over 200 lights create a fantastic view of a beautiful rainbow.



In addition, the park is equipped with sports facilities including bubble playground, in-line skating track, soccer field, and basketball court. You may also enjoy the gorgeous view of Hangang River and skyscrapers on the riverside from Gureum and Noeul cafes, lookout places located on the southernmost part of Dongjak Bridge.



Seoraeseom Island which connects from Banpo Hangang River Park is an artificially created island to provide a leisure space for Seoul urbanites. Every spring, the place is flooded with waves of canola flowers and people to enjoy picnic and spring events like ‘Searaeseom Butterfly, Canola Flower Festival’.

Your joyful experience in the park doesn’t end here - there are more things to see and enjoy including a nature experience field, boat quay, bike lane, and picnic spots.

Traveler's Guide

Why visit: Banpo Hangang Park owns Seoul's most famous river spectacle: the Moonlight Rainbow Fountain, where Banpo Bridge itself becomes a fountain, arcing jets of water lit in color along hundreds of meters of roadway. Beneath it, the Sebitseom floating islands glow on the water, and the park's lawns fill nightly with picnickers facing the show.

• Fountain shows run on a seasonal schedule (roughly April–October) with several performances an evening — confirm times before going.
• The east lawns opposite Sebitseom give the classic angle of fountain, bridge, and city lights together.
• Sebitseom's illuminated domes host cafes and restaurants if you want the view with a table.
• Cycle west to Yeouido or east toward Jamsil — Banpo is the scenic middle of the riverside bike route.

Good to know: Express Bus Terminal Station (Lines 3/7/9) then a 10–15 minute walk through the underpass. The fountain pauses in winter and in high winds.
