Lotte World Tower

Lotte World Tower is clearly the tallest building in South Korea and, of course, in Seoul. For this primacy of this skyscraper, a height of 555.7 m and a total of 123 usable floors are sufficient. The construction was completed quite quickly, within six years it was finished. Work started in November 2010 and was completed on December 22, 2016. The grand opening took place on April 3, 2017.

The skyscraper can be found right by the Hangang River in a recreation area known as Lotte World. Directly below this interesting building is the Seoul Subway station, which ensures very good transport accessibility. Specifically, you can get here by line number 2 and 8.

In addition to office space, you will find shops, apartments, a hotel, a swimming pool and, of course, observation decks for the public.
