The Cheonggyecheon was an obvious laundry site for women, a playground for children, and a living site for common people. This site revives the look of the river as a laundry site, filled with the joys and sorrows of women. It produces the scenery like a genre painting, by harmonizing with the 16 weeping willows transplanted from Cheonan, South Chungcheon-do. Though laundry washing is no longer allowed, this is a wonderful place to share memories and tell children some tales about days gone by.
