Seoul Tower

Lit up at night
Seoul Tower
N Seoul Tower
Namsan Tower
YTN Seoul Tower (official name, but uncommon)
It goes by many names
No matter the name, the tallest point in Seoul is a great place to visit



Cable Car

Single file...not quite.

All aboard 

Electric bus
There are a few ways to get to the top of this "mountain"
You can go on foot, bike, cable car, or bus
The buses have switched to electric power
Pedestrians are much happier with the switch from gas
No one wants a face full of exhaust
Hiking or biking is a great workout
But if you don't want to be out of breath, I recommend bus or cable car



Trash....

or art?
You never know what you'll see at the top
Sometimes music performances,
and sometimes trash-to-heart art



Cheers Seoul Tower
Looks likes we can add to the heart-art



Main square
Performances would be held here
It's also a great place to sit and relax
or to enjoy a beer like we did



Angled bench

Love locks
Along with the tower being the highest point in Seoul,
Seoul Tower is also a famous place for couples to visit
The benches are slanted toward the middle to bring couples close together
Many couples hang locks to commemorate their relationship


Our pink lock
We even got in on the act
Pink!  I wonder who chose this color?


Locked 
There are so many locks here
It's hard to find a spot
Hopefully we remember where we put it



Tickets for the elevator
View from the top
It's worth going up top for the view...
Especially at night



Bride mask

Groom mask
There is plenty to see in the gift shops too
As I write this, I just found out that these are bride and groom masks



More couple stuff
All these pictures make Seoul Tower look like a couples only spot,
but not so; it's fun for anyone to visit
If you visit Seoul, it's a must see



Bye bye!
See you next time Seoul Tower.

  1. Trash art? Someone should get a fine for that!

    And did you really not know those were bride and groom masks or are you sending us a message?
