Visit N Seoul Tower and Cable Car Ride

• Ride Namsan Cable Car round trip
• Visit N Seoul Tower Observatory
• Enjoy panoramic city views

The experience

The cable car carries you up Namsan Mountain in a single smooth ride, and the ticket includes the return trip. Once at the top, the N Seoul Tower Observatory sits at almost 500 meters elevation, high enough that the daily rush of the city falls away and you see Seoul spread across the whole horizon. During daylight the views reach to the hills beyond the city. After dark, the city lights take over and the effect shifts entirely.

Both the cable car and the tower are included on one ticket, collected in Myeongdong before you head to Namsan Park. The whole visit can take anywhere from an hour to five hours depending on how long you linger at the observatory and whether you explore the park itself. Wheelchair access is available, and the site suits all fitness levels. The cable car does the climbing for you.
