Looking for the River

So we decided to go to Gwanghwamun today and look for the stream (Cheonggyecheong) but we didn't really know where this river was...so we ended up wandering around to look for it and saw some spiffy stuff...

First thing we saw when we got out of the subway tunnel was this famous statue of King Sejong, with this lovely mountain in the background. I was so excited! I remember seeing this statue in tons of dramas and movies, it was so cool finally seeing it in person! I didn't even know it was in Gwanghwamun! So cool!

 By the way, the weather was absolutely beautiful today! It definitely reached 70! It was windy and lovely...the only problem was that it was still really smoggy. I need to buy a couple cheap masks for when it gets bad, I'm not sure if my throat is a little rough from all the singing last night, or the smog today...

A sculpture with an old tram: you could go inside and take pics :P She's trying to give a lunch to her son inside the tram

apparently there's a Tim Burton exhibit at the Art Museum...We'll come back and see it soon!

This is for you, Beloit!

 We finally made it back around to where we got off the subway and asked at a tourist info spot where the river was...and it was across the street near the spirally shell thing (in the pic below) where we were originally gonna go... -__-
