1. Jamsil Lotte World
Jamsil Station is directly connected to Lotte World Theme Park. Be aware that weekends are busy, and popular rides may require a wait of more than an hour.
You can, however, skip the long lines at popular attractions if you purchase a Magic Pass Premium (express pass) on Trazy. Visiting Lotte World on weekdays is much quieter, except on days when there are school trips.
The Lotte World Mall is on the opposite side of Jamsil Station. Just pay attention to the signs! You could easily lose track of time inside the mall. More than 650 different species, including white beluga whales, Humboldt penguins, cownose rays, and Piranha, can be seen in 15 different zones at Lotte World Aquarium.
Lotte World Tower, with 123 stories and a height of 555 meters, is South Korea’s tallest structure. The Seoul Sky Observatory is located on the top of the building, providing a 360-degree panoramic view of Seoul and the city’s beautiful skyline without any obstacles. You can also stand on the indoor glass floor to experience the sensation of floating in the air!.
2. Coex Mall
You can spend the afternoon at Bongeunsa Temple and COEX Mall if you don’t want to go to Jamsil. The temple is painless and quick; you can be in and out in 30 minutes or less. COEX is literally on the other side of the street!
The largest Aquarium in Korea is also located at COEX. Because it’s a mall, there’s plenty of shopping, entertainment, and photoshoots, such as the Starfield Library. Enjoy some food, get lost in COEX’s maze, and take advantage of the air conditioning.

Blackjack, Baccarat, Tai-sai, Roulette, Caribbean Poker, Slot online and slot machines are just a few of the games available to visitors. The casino is also a great place to sightsee and shop because of its convenient location in central Gangnam.
