Namhan River
The 883rd longest river in the world
Namhan River (lit. 'South Han River') is a major and second-longest river of South Korea. It is a tributary of the Han River. It is famous for clean and clear water, especially in its upper reaches and tributaries, and serves as a source of water for Seoul. A popular bike path follows the river. Several sections of it are used for public recreation, including rafting; some of these sections have their own traditional names, such as the "Donggang" or Dong River stretch, popular for natural beauty. Some part of this river was found to be contaminated by bis-(2-ethylhexyl)-phthalate (DEHP) with 50 ppb.
