Next to Cheongun Park on the Inwangsan slope, an abandoned water pumping station and its tanks have become a small literary museum. One of the three rooms is a tank with no roof, so you read the poet's lines and then look straight up at the sky. It takes little time to walk through. Entry is free, and a walk on the nearby Inwangsan trail makes it a half-day.
