Cheong Gye Chun during the 1910 - 1945. It looks much natural but there is not much water running and rather horrible looking.
Before 2005, when Cheong Gye Chun wasn't being rebuilt yet, it was covered with roads.

Man-made Landmark in Seoul: Chung Gye Chun
Cheong-Gye-Cheon (Cheong-Gye Stream) is an 8.4 km long, modern public recreation space in downtown Seoul, South Korea. The massive urban renewal project is on the site of a stream that flowed before the rapid post-war economic development required it to be covered by transportation infrastructure. The $900 million project initially attracted much public criticism, but after opening in 2005, has become popular among city residents and tourists.
