Why go

Seoul Saenggak Maru, also called the Ttukseom Worm Building (Ttukseom Jabeolre) for its long, segmented, tube-like exterior shape, is a public cultural-and-leisure space along the Han River in Seoul's Ttukseom Resort area. The building stretches as a long thin tube along the riverbank, with a continuous interior space inside that combines public lounge seating, a small library, meeting rooms, an exhibition area, and a viewing platform overlooking the river. The structural concept — a single long tubular form — was designed to minimize visual blocking of the river and to give visitors continuous river views from inside. The building functions as a free public lounge rather than a paid attraction. Pairs naturally with Ttukseom Hangang Park, the Seoul Forest area, and Han River cycling itineraries.
