<Major Tourist Attractions>

• Myeongdong Cathedral : Myeongdong Cathedral, the main building of the Catholic Archdiocese of Seoul, is the first Catholic parish in Korea and a symbol of the Korean Catholic Church. It was built in the pure Gothic style, with construction starting in 1892 (the 29th year of King Gojong's reign) and completed in 1898 (the 2nd year of the Gwangmu era). Myeongdong Cathedral has been a cornerstone that has had a major impact not only on the history of Christianity in Korea but also on Korean politics, society, and culture.
• Myeongdong Theatre : Restored from the old National Theater in Myeongdong, the Myeongdong Theatre opened in June 2009. It is a theater dedicated to performing arts where you can experience high-quality plays. It features a harmonious blend of the Baroque-style exterior of the theater, built in 1934, and modern interior performance facilities.
• Myeongdong Jaemiro (Cartoon Street) : It's a connection point between Myeongdong and Namsan, but compared to the glamour of Myeongdong, this uphill road was plain and steep without any particular features. However, in December 2013, it was reborn as a new 'Jaemiro' (Fun Road) filled with cartoons. Here, you can encounter various cartoon characters and content from about 70 representative Korean cartoonists, from veteran to rookie artists.

Cheonggyecheon Gwangtonggyo Bridge

Address: 55-2, Seorin-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul

The oldest bridge built of stone.

In the early Joseon Dynasty, during the reign of King Taejo, it was built of earth, but it collapsed due to heavy rains. It was rebuilt with stone in August 1410 (the 10th year of King Taejong's reign).

When it was rebuilt, it was made of 'stone objects' from Jeongneung, and there's a hidden story behind it.

When King Taejo attempted to pass on his throne to Prince Bangseok, the son of Queen Shindeok, Queen Kang (1356-1396),

King Taejong, enraged by this, instigated the Rebellion of the Princes, killing Prince Bangseok and ascending to the throne.

When Queen Shindeok's tomb was relocated, some of the stones were moved to a place where everyone could step on them, and those stones were all placed upside down.

It can be seen as a trace of a king of Joseon, who based his rule on filial piety (Hyo) and loyalty (Chung), taking revenge on his parents due to a sense of betrayal and anger towards a woman he once treated like his own mother.

It's famous as the place where people would play the 'stepping on the bridge' game on the first full moon of the lunar calendar, and Gwangtonggyo was said to be the busiest spot in Hanyang during that time.
