The Charter of 10 articles will serve as Seoul’s Urban Planning Charter,
providing consistent & timeless principles.
Seoul Urban Planning Charter
We will preserve the ecological environments and scenery that are unique to Seoul. In particular, we will
protect and restore the four inner mountains, located within the boundaries of the old capital, and the four
outer mountains, which are outside the boundaries of the old capital, the Hangang (River), and all of Seoul’s
streams in order to establish and strengthen Seoul’s environmental identity and symbolism and create a
healthy city where citizens have plenty of opportunities to experience nature in their daily lives.
Urban
Environmental
Preservation
Seoul’s historical and cultural heritage is a precious treasure of the Republic of Korea. Therefore, we will
preserve this heritage and pass it down to future generations. Furthermore, we
will make creative use of
this city’s tangible and intangible historical and cultural heritage in order to enrich the cultural lives of Seoul
citizens and contribute to urban rejuvenation efforts.
Historical
and Cultural
Preservation
By planning an urban spatial structure where residences and work areas are kept in close proximity, we will
reduce citizens’ commute costs and promote balanced development among the various regions of Seoul.
Also, we will build complexes of commerical and cultural facilities in the areas near subway stations so as to
create convenient, pedestrian-centered urban spaces.
Convenient
Living
We will guarantee the freedom of movement of all citizens and develop Seoul’s roads and transportation
system with a focus on public transportation to reduce environmental pollution and traffic congestion. We
will make it easier for citizens to walk, ride bicycles, and use other eco-friendly means of transportation
by promoting a street environment that prioritizes the safety and comfort of pedestrians above those of
drivers.
Eco-friendly
Mass
Transportation
Through
urban planning, we will create a city that is protected from disasters, conforms to the natural to-
pography, and preserves the water cycle. We will establish a risk management system that prevents various
types of disasters, minimizes damage in the event of a disaster, and quickly restores the environment to its
original state. We will create a vibrant, prosperous urban environment where citizens can live in safety from
crime.
Safe
Homes
We will ensure that all development activities, such as construction projects, are carried out in consideration
of the given conditions of the natural environment and pursue sustainable
development through various
means, including the use of new and renewable energy and reductions in energy consumption. In particular,
public buildings and facilities shall spearhead city-wide energy conservation efforts.
Energy
Conservation
The harmony between Seoul’s Architecture, facilities, and structures and the city’s natural environment and
historic sites will be maintained. We will even pursue such harmony with architecture in the areas surround-
ing Seoul. Breaking away from conformity, we will ensure that urban and living environments in different
regions of the city exhibit the diversity and individuality of those regions by highhlighting their unique
characteristics.
Harmonious
Scenery
We will preserve and protect the uniqueness of each region in Seoul as well as the history and stories of
each community, thereby maintaining spatial diversity. By promoting the value of the colorful lives of Seoul
citizens and historically
significant spaces, we will contribute to environmental maintenance and urban
regeneration efforts while promoting specialized local development.
Spatial
Uniqueness
and Diversity
All citizens will coluntarily and democratically participate in the process of implementing urban planning
policies, ensuring that diverse interests are reflected. To facilitate this participation and help invigorate local
communities, we will establish a cooperative system that promotes constant communication between local
residents and public administrative organizations.
