Seoul Map Art
Seoul's map is defined by the Han River running east-west through the center, with the city spreading north and south in rigid blocks. The Cheonggyecheon, a restored stream, cuts diagonally through downtown in a narrow canyon, while the subway system forms concentric circles that follow the old fortress walls and ward boundaries. Mountains ridge the city on three sides—Namsan, Bukhansan, and Gwanaksan—their slopes visible as green barriers on every map edge.
