Take the city in, all the way round

Walk one slow lap and the whole city passes by — Bukhansan and the Han River by day, an unbroken field of light by night.

Tips

Optical zoom up to 36× brings the city’s landmarks close. Found on Tower 2F, 4F and 5F.

Streetlights and roads trace a star across the city. Look for the point at Yongsan-daero.

On Tower 4F, even the restroom faces the skyline. The view really does go everywhere.
