Chuhng-gye Stream [청계천] on Buddha’s Birthday 2013
I was in Seoul for much of the day Friday, a holiday, the annual celebration of Buddha’s Birthday.
The above is in the evening, in the 8 PM hour, along central-Seoul’s Cheonggye Stream, near City Hall and Gwanghwamun Plaza. The lights have Buddhist religious significance, I suppose.
The crowds were immense, all along the path. When the picture was snapped, I was exiting the stream area after having finished plodding through the crowds for 30 minutes — entry points to the stream are highly limited.
