Seoullo 7017

Seoullo 7017, also known as the Seoul Skygarden or Skypark, is an elevated linear park in Seoul, built atop a former highway overpass. The path, which is about 1 kilometre (0.62 mi) in length and lined with 24,000 plants, is similar to New York City's High Line. Skygarden was designed by MVRDV, a Dutch firm, and opened in May 2017. The path also improves walking times around Seoul Station.
