Saetgang Bridge: A Pedestrian Bridge

Willow, ponds, ecosystem, parks, visitor center,well, it's winter...and the grass were all dying or not that pretty to look at, but the simple excitement of being there for the first time was a plus in its own.
..should've gone home earlier, but I decided to go explore this less-trodden track near the Saetgang bridge that I saw a couple of times on my bus-ride to my workplace.
Turned out to be a cool place to see...and COLD, too.
...considering the frozen creek in the area. It's a surreal feeling to be there by myself...in the dusk...with the chilling weather.
I guess...my urge of exploring a new area was the driving force that kept me going...exploring this ecosystem underneath the bridge.
Bumped into this wooden bridge over the frozen river....overlooking three high-rises afar.
It's a bit monotonous from here. But, I'll be back ..in spring to see how it'll change colors.
white frozen creek, high-rises at its background, dried grass, bland view of the whole neighborhood since it's a cold winter....Still, I saw beauty in it.
The bridge..from afar...does not look that high, but...it is so darn high. Got me chills when I was climbing up the stairs leading up to the upper deck.
With its unique architectural design, this is definitely one of the best spots to see Youido, one of Seoul's business districts.
The modern-design of this bridge indeed gives a boost of the area: 
a combination of modernity and nature.

Youido Viewed from Saetgang Bridge

With my camera ready on my shoulder, I was walking through the bridge....
..and managed to take lots of snapshots of Youido from the bridge where I was standing.
Yup, this pedestrian bridge really helps commuters or everyone working in Youido area to come back-and-forth from the business district to Singil subway station.
A look of an early evening in winter...Jan.'16.
I thought this was supposed to be for pedestrians...but I guess people with their bikes are also allowed to use the bridge. hmm, well...I think that's okay.
No one was there. I mean..not many people. Wonder why...
The view of Seoul I've never seen before, though I'm sort of ..working nearby.
From afar, I always thought that this bridge was small and not that worth-visiting.
But, I guess I was wrong....since from here..I could see a different angle of Youido island.
It's a good start spot to see the rush hour on the highways underneath the bridge.
...or simply walking back-and-forth to feel the sensation of this bridge...which for some height-thrill-seekers, it's worth-trying.
All in all, I spent a good time..walking pass this bridge...
Bye-bye^^ See you when I'll be there.

Yeouido Park 여의도 공원 End of Spring

Subhanallah. ..it's amazing.
The flowers were greeting us with of all their charms. Eyra and Freya couldn't be more happier.
The white flowered trees.
And....the video I took....
Bumped into King Sejong in statue.
