The World Music Fountain, built in 2002, has become one of Seoul’s most beloved landmarks. With 60 pumps and over 1,000 nozzles, it presents a spectacular show as water “dances” in harmony with music from around the world. Comparable to the Trevi Fountain in Rome or the Bellagio Fountain in Las Vegas, Seoul’s own music fountain creates an unforgettable experience for visitors. From May to October, the fountain runs several times a day, creating a memorable experience to enjoy with family and friends.
