Namsan Tower, known as N Seoul Tower now, is one of the most popular attractions in Seoul.
This place is always crowded and visited by many people at all season. In this post, we will take you to a place located near AREX Seoul Station where you can enjoy beautiful night view of Seoul.
Namsan is beautiful during the day, but it is more beautiful at night! We recommend you to visit Namsan Mountain in the afternoon, and stay until evening to enjoy the beautiful sunset scenery of Seoul.
There are many ways to get to Namsan Tower. The easiest way is to take the Namsan Circulation Bus from the National Theater of Korea.
Another option is, take a slow and look around the quiet Fortress Wall of Seoul, which became famous as the filming site for the popular Korean drama - Itaewon Class. Hanyangdoseong (Seoul City Wall) is connected to Namsan Park.
After passing the Baekbeom Plaza, walk up the stairs and you will see the Beacon Mound, which was built during the Joseon Dynasty. Walk for another 2km, you will then meet the Namsan Seoul Tower.
Even if you don't go up to the Seoul Tower Observatory, you can still enjoy such beautiful sunset view. This breathtaking view is as beautiful as any other popular attractions for sunset scenery in overseas.
At the entrance of the Namsan Seoul Tower, there is an octagonal pavilion and you may take a rest at the seat while enjoying the beautiful sunset.
On the other side of Namsan Seoul Tower, there is also an observation deck whereby you can enjoy breathtaking view of Seoul. The Namsan "Locks of Love" is where couples put their love locks, and this corner has became one of the most attractions too.
When the sun goes down and the sky has become dark, beautiful lights are lit up all over Namsan Seoul Tower. The Namsan Tower light colour brings different meaning.
There is a love tunnel on the west side that connects the 4th Floor and T1 floor. Thanks to this fancy lighting that is available for all year round, it allows you to make good memories even during the day.
Besides that, there are also many photo zones that are perfect for taking pictures, from proposal zone to love lock tree, which can create a romantic atmosphere. Time flies when you are at Namsan!
