Seoul Plaza

Established in 2004, Seoul Plaza is an oval-shaped public square located in front of the City Hall in the heart of Seoul. It hosts a wide range of cultural events including festivals, concerts and public exhibitions. It also turns into an outdoor ice rink. Every winter, it is a popular attraction in the city, and in the past it had a large fountain in its center, but this has been replaced by a fountain on the sidewalk that shoots water into the air through a number of holes in the ground, and in 2004, the area was renovated and became vehicle-free.
