N Seoul Tower, Television tower on Namsan Mountain, Seoul, South Korea
N Seoul Tower rises 236 meters above Namsan Mountain, serving as a broadcasting facility and observation point with 360-degree views of the metropolis.
The structure began operations in 1969 as South Korea's first general radio wave tower, officially opening to the public in October 1980 for recreational purposes.
The tower features the Locks of Love tradition, where thousands of padlocks attached to fences represent promises between couples visiting the landmark.
Visitors can reach the tower through multiple transportation options, including a cable car system from the base of Namsan Mountain or hiking trails.
The tower's LED lighting system creates nightly displays visible across Seoul, with special patterns marking different seasons and celebrations throughout the year.
