- Sebitseom
- Sebitseom (Sevit Islands) is one of the landmarks of the Hangang River. Sebitseom, in Korean, means an island that is brightened up by three rays of light. They are comprised of three smaller islands named Vista, Viva and Tera, which resemble the shape of a flower, a flower bud and a seed respectively. At night, the islands draw attention as if they were three gems that glow in the dark and brighten up the Hangang River. Around Sebitseom, you will find a number of open-air cafés, restaurants and bars. It is also where the Avengers, a Hollywood blockbuster, was filmed. Inside Sebitseom, various exhibitions and conferences are held. This space can also be used for a beautiful and romantic wedding ceremony. Unlike tourists visiting Sebitseom to enjoy the night views, for the citizens of Seoul, it is a space where they casually enjoy their relaxing evenings.
