Diamond Tower, Observation tower in Jung-gu, Busan, South Korea.
The Diamond Tower is a 120-meter observation tower in Jung-gu that rises above Busan and provides views of the harbor, cityscape, and surrounding mountains. From its observation deck, visitors can see the city and the ocean stretching in all directions.
Construction of the tower in 1973 marked a period of rapid urban development in Busan and changed the city's architectural landscape. This structure reflects the time when the city was transforming into a modern port center.
The tower sits within Yongdusan Park and hosts exhibitions and performances featuring local artists and traditional Korean shows throughout the year. Visitors can experience both contemporary and traditional art forms displayed in this modern setting.
Two high-speed elevators take visitors to the observation deck, which has a cafe and multiple viewing spots for photographing the city. The deck has space to walk around and explore different angles at your own pace.
The tower's structure creates shifting silhouettes against the sky as visitors walk around the observation deck. These changing outlines reveal new views of the harbor landscape and city profile from different angles.
