Complete Travel Guide to Banpo Bridge Rainbow Fountain in Seoul + How to Get There with MOVV
If you’re traveling to Seoul and looking for an unforgettable night view activity, the Banpo Bridge Moonlight Rainbow Fountain should be high on your list. Whether you’re an early-planning traveler or someone who loves spontaneous adventure, this spot offers one of the most mesmerizing sights in the city — a colorful symphony of water, light, and music dancing over the iconic Han River.
In this post, we’ll break down everything you need to know about visiting this must-see attraction, the best ways to get there, and how MOVV — Korea’s trusted, government-certified private ride platform — can make your journey more comfortable and seamless.
Why You Shouldn’t Miss the Moonlight Rainbow Fountain
Located at Banpo Bridge, which connects the Seocho and Yongsan areas in Seoul, the Moonlight Rainbow Fountain holds the Guinness World Record as the longest bridge fountain in the world. Featuring over 380 nozzles installed on either side of the bridge, the fountain projects illuminated streams of water in sync with music. It’s stunning during the day but becomes truly magical after sunset.
For the 2025 season, water shows run from April through October with the following schedule:
| Season | Show Times |
|---|---|
| April – June, Sep – Oct | 12:00, 19:30, 20:00, 20:30, 21:00 |
| July – August | Adds an extra show at 21:30 |
The show may be canceled if weather conditions like high winds or heavy rainfall occur, so it’s a good idea to check ahead.
Getting to Banpo Bridge with Ease
