Namsan


1. Mokmyeok Sanbang

Namsan is famous for its pork cutlets? That's right. Because its pork cutlets gained fame, many more pork cutlet restaurants appeared and its price also slowly rose

Another delicious restaurant at Namsan that you can enjoy at the price of the pork cutlets, Mokmyeok Sanbang! It's a Korean cuisine restaurant that specializes in bibimbap, recommended several times on the Michelin guide.

2. Cable Car

There are 3 ways to go up to N Seoul Tower.

✔ Walking up

✔ Bus : You can take a bus up to N Seoul Tower from Namdaemun Market, Seoul Station, and Myeongdong Station!

✔ Cable Car : The wait can get up to 2 hours long in the weekends , so we recommend avoiding the weekends for the cable car!

Shall we follow Oppa onto the cable car and go up?

The most comfortable way to get to Namsan is the "Cable Car ♫".

The price is, of course, slightly expensive, but you can see the whole Seoul scenery, and it's the most comfortable!

If you enjoy walking, we also recommend walking up when the weather is nice. It's such a cool place, many couples walk up as part of their date course even today Recommendations from a Korean local for Korean cuisine in Namsan and the best night scenery in Seoul!

A useful tip☘) You can tell the air quality by looking at the lights on the N Seoul Tower in the evening!
