Treating subdirectory as root URL

I've got a domain, and I've installed wordpress to a subfolder.

But I want the root directory (the website URL) to access the wordpress folder.

eg.

www.mywebsite.com should show wordpress, which is actually stored at www.mywebsite.com/wordpress

I could make a redirect, but I would rather know the correct way to do this.

How can I make one address seamlessly show another directory's content?

Edit httpd.conf and set the DocumentRoot in the VirtualHost to point to the folder.
