Seoul's Opening of Hangang Outdoor Swimming Pools

Seoul City opens its outdoor swimming pools at Ttukseom, Gwangnaru, Jamsil, Jamwon, and Yeouido and water parks at Yanghwa and Nanji from June 28 to August 25, 2019. The outdoor swimming pool at Mangwon will be closed due to construction for improvement of the northern extremity of Seongsan Bridges.

The Hangang swimming pools and water parks have been beloved by Seoul residents as they are located at the heart of the city, offering the view of the river, enabling visitors to enjoy playing in the water at a low price.

This year, as the repairs of the facilities, are completed, including the floor of the swimming pool, wall painting, filters, and showers, a more ameliorated and safe environment is available. Seoul City has also improved the convenience of users by changing the rental toilets in order to fundamentally tackle sanitation issues.
