Seoul Sky Observatory 서울스카이 전망대
Seoul · Jamsil & Songpa · Night view
Seoul Sky is the observation deck on the upper floors of Lotte World Tower, one of the tallest buildings in the world. A fast elevator carries you up in about a minute, and the deck offers a panoramic view across the Han River, the mountains and the grid of streets. Some floors have glass sections that let you look straight down, which can be thrilling or nerve-racking, depending on your head for heights.
Buy tickets online ahead of time, as the price can be lower than at the counter. Prices and hours may change, and the deck can close in strong wind.
Jamsil Station (잠실역), Lines 2 and 8, Exit 1 or 2, then follow the signs through Lotte World Mall to the Seoul Sky entrance.
