A Glimpse of A Bridge and Its Wonders Beneath

Moments as I was walking .....passing through the bridge and...enjoying what's underneath.
A recollection of what's in store from a simple walk home from work.^^
The fish-net-like suspension. Dizzyingly high.
A gem in winter...found underneath the bridge.
A gem in winter...found in the city night lights.
A gem in winter...found in the unique design of the bridge. 

Ecosystem(s) Underneath the Pedestrian Bridge

Enough for the bridge. Though it's unlike any others I've seen in other parts of the city, I find it okay for the time being. But....
..what intrigued me most was what's under it. Yup...
I climbed down the bridge to see what's in store underneath this pedestrian bridge.
The dead tall grass(?) seemed to be 'unwelcoming',but hey..what to expect in winter, then? Still, they're parts of the whole ecosystem available underneath the bridge. BUT....
I wasn't prepared to see this. Yup, it got my heart pumped. I loveeeed it. A combination of modernity and nature......a housing complex and nature become one. The whole ecosystem seems to be unobstructed by the fact that this is located between highways....
even wild ducks were freely playing around there when I kept on walking deep into the park.
Even, a lifebuoy was attached on a corner at the deck...just in case someone crazy enough to plunge into the water. ㅋㅋㅋ
이쁘다, 진짜. 넘 신기해서 그런지...겨울에도 볼 만한 곳으로 되었음.
The reflection of the bridge onto the pond was a sight to see. Again...it's not for everyone. It could've just been me...who happened to love nature. That's all there is.
 I wouldn't have gone here, had I not had the urge to explore what's that near my workplace. Yup, this pedestrian bridge has been on my mind every time I took a taxi or bus...passing it by.
Then...last week..I managed to walk from the office...and took this path.
It turned out to be "okay, worth-visiting" again..especially in SPRING.

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.
