Free Concerts
From mid-May to the end of August grassy Seoul Plaza fronting the City
Hall is the scene for free performances most nights. In summer there's also a water foun-
tain that kids love to splash in.
Lonely Planet's Top Tip
On the roof of the original Shinsegae building is Trinity Garden, dotted with sculptures by Alexander Calder,
Henry Moore, Joan Miró and Jeff Koons among others; there's a cafe or you could enjoy a picnic of goodies
bought from the department store's food hall.
