    Salgoji Bridge

    A long Joseon stone bridge across the Jungnangcheon system, historically linking the capital toward the east and now approached from riverside paths; it is listed always open but has no dedicated parking, so use the marked pedestrian approach, watch for wet or icy stone, stay clear of cycle traffic and do not climb railings or enter the channel after rain.

    Seoul Waterworks Museum

    A museum occupying parts of Korea's first modern water-purification plant, explaining Seoul's drinking-water history through preserved industrial buildings, machinery and family learning spaces; published hours are 09:00–18:00, but closures and programmes should be confirmed, and visitors should follow the designated museum route because the wider site remains connected to water infrastructure.

    A narrow residential market near Geumho and Oksu with produce, side dishes, prepared food and household goods woven into the surrounding streets; stalls set their own hours and closures, so visit during active daytime, confirm price, card use and allergens before ordering, keep the shared road clear and use the designated market parking rather than stopping at an entrance.
