Lotte World Mall

Lotte World Mall is a 123-floor tower in Seoul that houses retail shops, corporate offices, hotel rooms, and apartments stacked vertically. The building integrates these different functions throughout its height, creating a mixed-use space within a single structure.

Planning for this structure started in the 1990s and received final government approval in 2010. It was completed several years later, becoming a significant addition to Seoul's skyline.

The glass exterior structure reflects traditional Korean ceramics design while the metal lantern shape represents modern architectural elements.

A network of multiple lifts connects the different levels quickly, from underground floors to the observation deck at the top. Visitors should know that different sections may have varying opening hours.

The Seoul Sky observation platform sits roughly halfway up the structure and offers sweeping views across the city. On clear days, visitors can see both historical mountains and modern neighborhoods stretching in all directions.
