Streetcar Tracks

Here's the west-side approach toward Gwanghwamun. On the right is the mound that people used to walk on, which I guess possibly contains the tracks.

Here's a photo on construction hoarding showing the uncovered tracks.

I'm on the wrong side of the fence, at least for anarchaeology.

This view was achieved by standing on a box next to the fence.

This is in a separate lot more to the east, which also might contain tracks.

Here's a view of the eastern site, looking in from over the eastern fence.

Here's a view looking toward Gwanghwamun, through a gap in the hoarding.

They seem to be building a sidewalk.

I checked in after work.

And again after 11pm.

This is from on the embankment they seem to be removing to uncover the tracks.

Still viewing from over the fence.

This is the pedestrian passageway separating the two lots. The one on the right, west, is the interesting one.

There were still people around. You can see a cop across the street.

Turning around and heading back.

This is from inside the fence.

Straight in front of Gwanghwamun.

A drainage feature.

Now here's a view of the tracks, from about a meter closer than I was before.

I didn't walk over the ruins, and followed a well-marked path through the middle.

Just a quick look at the lonely haechi.

Right up close with the tracks.

On my way home, back to the can on the left, from the cans in the middle and on the right.

Next day, here's a roof view of the site.

A slightly more scenic view.
