Beside Cheongun Park on the Inwangsan slope, a former water pumping station and its tanks have been turned into a small literary museum. One of its three rooms is an open-roofed tank, so you read the poet's lines and then look straight up at the sky. It is small and quick to walk through. Entry is free, and a stroll on the nearby Inwangsan trail turns it into a half-day.
