Tourists can enjoy a leisurely view of Seoul's modern skyline and Nam-san from one of the cruise boats that ply between Yeouido lsland and Jamsil. Water sports are also becoming increasingly popular.

Yeouido is home to the National Assembly, Korean Stock Exchange, many large corporate headquarters, and Korea's three broadcasting stations: KBS, MBC, and SBS. Nearby Korean Life Insurance Building , with its 63 floors, is one of Asia's tallest buildings. and, as such, has become a popular tourist attraction. Yunjung-ro, the road behind the National Assembly, is famous for cherry-blossom viewing parties in mid April. At that time, all roads are crowded with lovers, friends, and families.
Located near subway stations and bus stops, the park is convenient for transportation. The outside stage along the river side often has events and concerts for visitors. People enjoy life with motor gliding, motorcar race, water skiing, bicycling, and Kite Flying. The bicycle path (2.4 km) and walking path (3.9 km) are the favorite spots of the Park.
