Seoullo 7017

서울로 7017

Jung-gu, Seoul · 서울

A kilometre of disused motorway overpass above Seoul Station, converted by MVRDV into a linear park holding 24,000 plants in concrete pots, arranged alphabetically by Korean name.

Why it’s worth it

It links Namdaemun, Seoul Station and Malli-dong at rooftop height, so it is a genuinely useful shortcut as well as a garden. Best at dusk.
