Banpo Bridge Rainbow Fountain (반포대교 달빛무지개분수)

The Rainbow Fountain plunges 20 meters into the water on both side of Banpo Bridge over the Hangang River. When the sun goes down, 200 lights illuminate the fountain as it sends out dancing, rainbow-colored jets of water in the air in synchronization with music. The fountain boasts spectacular views from the hills, the Hangang River observation deck, and the moon-shaped Moonlight Square. Banpo Bridge Rainbow Fountain operates every day from April to October, four to six times a day for 20 minute

Why go

Banpo Bridge Rainbow Fountain spans both sides of the 1,140-metre Banpo Bridge over the Han River in Seoul, earning recognition as one of the world's longest bridge fountain systems. Water jets mounted along the bridge's railings arc outward and downward toward the river, synchronized with changing colored LED lights after dark. The fountain operates in multiple daily sessions during warmer months, drawing locals and visitors to the riverside parks on either bank. Seocho-gu's Banpo Hangang Park, directly below, provides open lawns and food vendors, making it a practical base for watching the display up close.
