hello everyone!

Seoul City officially began operating the Hangang Bus on September 18, 2025. Have you ever ridden one? I haven't, but a friend of mine did that day. He said it was amazing. Today, I'll introduce you to the Seoul Hangang Bus.

1️⃣ Introduction to Seoul Hangang Bus

The Seoul Hangang Bus's most distinctive feature is its "water public transportation." Designed to allow passengers to experience Seoul's sights along the river while avoiding road congestion, it offers both sightseeing and transportation. This "bus" connects seven docks: Magok, Mangwon, Yeouido, Apgujeong, Oksu, Ttukseom, and Jamsil, and covers a total length of approximately 28.9 km.

2️⃣ Seoul Hangang Bus operating hours and fares

Initially, it was announced that the first ferry would depart at 11:00 AM starting September 18th, with the last ferry arriving at 9:37 PM, for a total of 14 daily departures. While the frequency varies by pier, it's generally every 1 to 1.5 hours. The fare is 3,000 won per ride. If you use the Gifu Toll Free Card, you can ride unlimitedly for an additional 5,000 won. Starting October 10th, the service will extend to longer hours and include express routes during rush hour.

3️⃣ Advantages of Seoul Han River Bus

The Seoul Han River Bus offers stunning views of the river, including bridges crossing the river, riverside parks, and nightscapes, making it a great photo opportunity. It's perfect for international students and friends on weekends. And the experience of traveling "on the river"—aside from the buses, subway, and bus stops—is a new and memorable experience in Seoul! There are many subway stations and bus stops near the pier, making it incredibly convenient.

Today, I introduced you to the Seoul Hangang Bus. I think I should try riding it too. I've decided to go with a friend next week. Haha.

Have a nice day~
