"What vision and will can make possible. PM visits the urban renewal project Cheonggyecheon Stream in Seoul," the Ministry of External Affairs spokesperson tweeted along with some photographs of the Prime Minister's tour of the area.
The spokesperson also posted pictures of the stream as it looked before the urban renewal project and its present look.
The Cheonggyecheon Stream is a massive urban renewal project that replaced an inner-city expressway by an open space for citizens.
The project initially attracted much public criticism but, after opening in 2005, it has become popular among city residents and tourists.
Prime Minister Modi also interacted with the members of the Indian community at the Cheonggyecheon Stream, amid chants of "Modi, Modi".
"Venue different but enthusiasm same: the Indian community and PM," the PMO tweeted.
"Connecting with people in Seoul," another tweet said.
