Three New Islands for Seoul

Posted by Rebecca Eggleston on February 10, 2010

Here’s a glimpse of what Seoul has planned for its waterfront: three new recreation islands.

It is hoped that this project will become a vibrant cultural and entertainment destination, and ‘buoy the city’s spirits’.

The development will feature three islands -- Vista, Viva and Terra -- each with its own distinctive theme and purpose, from a festival hall, to a base for water sports and leisure. The group of islands combined will cover 9,995 square meters.  The developers intend the project to boost use of the waterfront area.
