City Gates

I come from Seoul, the capital of Korea. Seoul is the Capital of Korea, located along the Hangang River. It has grown into agreat metropolis with a population of more than 10 million.

They have four seasons. It is Spring, Summer, Autumn, and Winter.In Summer, it is very hot and in Winter, itis very cold. Autume is very beautiful season. A many colourful leaves fall on the road. It's very gorgeous.

Over the years the Capital city has continued to grow as a political, economic, cultural and educational centre. Now Seoul is the world's 10th- largest city.

It's past and present live together. There are many Palaces, City gates, Shrines and Gardens. The old city was surrounded by four inner mountains and outter mountains in the North, East and WEst. There were originally inside the Castle walls of the ancient Capital.

Now there are a lot of high rise buildings, high apartments, huge buildings and departmentstores

In Seoul, the most visited attractions are the ancient royal Palaces and Shrines, the famous old Markets, Olympic citizen's Forest and Hangang River Trail.

So they are all enjoyed by residents and visitors.
