About Namsan and N Seoul Tower

From up here, Seoul stops looking like a collection of subway stations. Namsan combines the climb up the hill with the N Seoul Tower, with observation areas and a city that sprawls beyond the frame. Choose the day for visibility: buying a ticket doesn't include the haze's cooperation.

Buses and a cable car are ways to reach the hill; confirm the route and keep that trip separate from the observatory ticket. Couples' love locks show up there too.
