Lakes, rivers and inland water landscapes
Rivers and reservoirs shape many Korean cities and rural landscapes, creating places for walking, scenery, local history and seasonal change. This collection brings together destinations where inland water is the defining feature.
Coastal estuaries and sea-facing landscapes stay with Coast & Islands when their identity is primarily maritime; here the focus is on rivers, lakes, reservoirs and inland waterside places.
