Before you go
- Best for
- A warm-weather evening on the riverbank, staying on for the cool breeze after sunset.
- A first evening in Seoul, with the Han River and the city lights.
- Don’t miss
- A show after full dark, since the lights are hard to photograph in daylight.
- A seat on the steps in front of the fountain, facing the bridge.
- Skip if
- You expect a complex, high-energy performance rather than a simple, repetitive light and water show.
- You want to avoid large crowds, heavy traffic, and busy parking areas during peak weekend hours.
- You need restrooms close by; a reviewer says they are quite far.
