At The Headwaters

Of the modernized, artificially enhanced CheongGyeCheon stream, Seoul -- indelibly marked by this Claes Oldenberg sculpture.  It is my personal opinion that its toy-like bright colors stand out dissonantly amidst the stream's stark, open environment, but what do I know, it's a popular tourist attraction as well as a favorite hangout of Seoulites who want to relax and enjoy a bit of (semi-)nature along with the herons and egrets, who don't seem to mind all the human attention.
