Seoul Battleship Park is the perfect place for family visitors to enjoy the full moon. Located in Mangwon Hangang Park, it is one of the best sites to view the sunset. Visitors can view the setting sun before seeing the full moon.

For a date under the full moon with a beautiful night view of the river, cafes located on the Han River bridges are strongly recommended. Visitors can view the moon while enjoying a casual meal or drink at a cafe. Located upstream and downstream of Dongjak Bridge, Gureum Cafe and Noeul Cafe boast magnificent views.
