Seoul-tram-363-20191021-130310.jpg · LERK (opens in a new tab) · CC BY-SA 4.0 (opens in a new tab) · Photo taken 2019-10-21 · Source checked 2026-10-18The Commons file’s Korean description identifies the image as the Seoul Tram preserved at the National Children’s Science Center; the English description says “Preserved Seoul Tram 363” outside the National Children’s Science Center in Jongno-gu. The published coordinates (37.582194, 126.996667) are also on the same facility grounds. The car number 363, outdoor shelter and tram-preservation sign were verified directly in the image. This is not a photo of a science center in Gwacheon or Nowon, nor an operating tram route. Although the photo was taken in 2019 after the 2017 renovation, it does not establish whether the tram is currently accessible or open to visitors. Do not describe it as a building exterior, indoor play area or new exhibition photo. The 4,000 × 2,250 original was resized with sips to 1,600 × 900, preserving its aspect ratio, and recompressed at JPEG quality 75. No crop or subject alteration was made. Retain CC BY-SA 4.0 on the photo and resized version, and credit creator LERK, the original filename and source, and note the modification. The image may be cropped to fit its display area. The photo license is the one linked above.
Center the visit on activities at the National Children’s Science Center in Jongno, then take a break near Marronnier Park. This itinerary is in the Hyehwa area and should not be confused with the facility in Neung-dong, Gwangjin-gu.
