Banpo Moonlight Rainbow Fountain

Time Lapse Version:



Banpo Bridge fountain is the longest bridge fountain in the world. The bridge is located on the Han River in Seoul, South Korea.

I finally had a success this time! I actually stayed and watched the show 3 times! On the weekend there are 3 shows at night: 8:00, 8:30 and 9:00. (I think there might be one at 9:30, but there wasn't one last night). Each show lasts about 15 minutes.

I got there around 7:45 and set up my tripod. I thought that the fountain show happened on both sides of the bridge so I was set up on the left side, but it was only on the right side tonight so I had to move. For the first show I was annoyed that people kept coming and standing right in front of my camera. For the 2nd show I moved my camera closer to the edge so no one couldn't stand in front of me. Lots of people were there filming and taking pictures.

I got a lot of footage to make a video. My video will be edited down to less than 6 minutes. I got footage from 3 shows and 2 different angles. I also made a time lapse version. I love the time lapse function on ios8 (the new update for apple products). I have an ipad mini. I think its a great camera. The quality and the sound is nice.



How to get there: Dongjak station (line 4)..exit 1 or 2...follow the walking path for about 20 minutes and you will arrive at the bridge. The bridge is next to 2 buildings on the river that change colors.
