Tips

Buy Seoul Sky observatory tickets online in advance to skip the ticket queue on weekends.
The glass-floor Sky Deck on the 118th floor is not for the faint-hearted — but it is the best photo spot.
The mall food court in the basement is a good, affordable lunch option.
Combine the tower with a walk around nearby Seokchon Lake, especially pretty during cherry blossom season.
