When we concluded our Seoul searching trip, we made sure we didn’t miss out on getting the best view from Seoul’s highest point in Namsam Mountain. With the bird’s eye view it provides, I think it is the best spot to say goodbye to another beautiful city we enjoyed. It is home to the love locks you might have seen in your favourite Korean dramas and to the beautiful Namsam Tower.

If you’re travelling with older people, like I did having my parents with me, you can also ride a shuttle bus going to the cable car at Exit 7 or 8, because the walk to the cable car alone can already be tiring. They provide a shuttle bus (₩1,200) in different train stations in Seoul. You can find the info here.
Another way to get to Namsan Tower is to hike to Namsan Mountain. This is mostly recommended for those who have an active lifestyle. Don’t worry because the path is cemented. It’s also very pretty if you’re hiking during cherry blossom season.

If you’re travelling as a family on a tight budget, N Plaza will be enough to see the whole of Seoul thanks to their overlooking terraces. One thing I recommend is to come here to catch the sunset so you can witness the beautiful view during the day, and stay until it gets dark to see the tower and city lights after.
