Things to do in Ansan

It's windy and a bit chilly on Namsan Mountain, so be sure to dress warmly if you go up in the evening in October. The scenery is fantastic; on a clear day, you can get a clear view of the entire city of Seoul. They have beer and drinks on-site, and you can sit down and enjoy the view. Be sure to try the restrooms!

Visiting Lotte World Adventure at night with friends completely changes the vibe, trading daytime family crowds for glowinglights and a neon-lit backdrop of the Seokchon Lake area. Due to how late we went, 20:00, it was harder to get on rides. There were few rides and activities open, and what was open had longer wait times (at least an hour). So, if you would like to enjoy the rides but still get the vibe of the night, I would suggest arriving at 17:00 and staying until close (22:00). All preference based, still had a fun experience and it wasn’t my first time or last time going. It is located within the mall, so even if you happen to have a change of heart, there’s plenty to do in the surrounding areas. Enjoy!!

In the height of summer, Seoul Tower is more tiring with its uphill climb, but less of a hassle waiting for the cable car. It's a must-see attraction for first-time visitors. You can choose whether or not to go up the tower at your own expense; it's similar to the Oriental Pearl Tower in Shanghai. The all-glass bathrooms inside the tower are a major highlight! 😂

Amazing value! Seoul Land offers the romance of this summer. It has water rides, thrilling attractions, shows, and fireworks on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday evenings. The staff are all very friendly. A few rides have a separate fee, but it's not expensive. Most rides don't require a second payment. The log flume is a must-ride! The flying insect ride is also a must-ride! It's very convenient to get there from downtown Seoul by taxi, which goes directly to the parking lot at the entrance.

I visited the Eland Hangang River Cruise with my family, and we had such a wonderful experience! The views of Seoul from the river were beautiful, and the whole cruise was relaxing and enjoyable. It was a perfect way to spend quality time with my family and make lovely memories together. Definitely recommend it, especially for families visiting Seoul!

Entry ticket is great value for the money. The Q pass is really efficient especially for this ride where the queue was very long but with the Q pass, we didn’t wait at all. The rest of the park is good for price, pandas are cute but limited time to see them, especially the 2nd panda house

Gwangmyeong Cave, because it is underground, has a relatively low temperature, so be sure to wear enough clothes. It is worth a visit, but please note that the last admission time is 5 pm and it closes at 6 pm!

Big, beautiful and bustling! The palace is so spacious with so much to see and wander through. It can take you a couple hours but it’s wonderful and vibrant. I wish there was more historical information but it seems like it is being expanded in some ways. There’s tons of tourists and pretty places to take so much photos. If you wear traditional clothing, you get in for free!

It's a very nice place, and I like that Koreans preserve their history, preserve their houses, and live in them. I recommend not lingering on the main street, but rather, going deeper into the area where you'll find museums and more unique, less touristy places you can stop in and stroll around. But be polite and don't make noise, because that's where people live.

Reasons to Recommend:1. Lively street throughout the night2. Shops are open till 12am which makes it convenient for people to shop for skincare, cosmetics, food3. Bus stop and subway stations are everywhere
