Lotte World, Seoul

Lotte world offers a great deal of fun for everyone! Thrilling rides for people of all ages, as well as their monorails and balloon rides which offer great views over the park. Entry prices are reasonable. Waiting lines can be quite long for the most popular attractions. Easy access to different foods and snacks.

Really this place is totally unexpected. Right off a subway station you get a mall, amusement park, skating rink with a shooting range in the basement. It's so many things in one small space and the execution is good! When I first heard about it I thought it would be childish or cheap feeling. I was so wrong. The amusement park is better than some I've been to in North America. What a great place to have a date!

Great place for kids and teens. In door area is for kids but large. Olympic stadium size. Expect long lineups especially on weekends and holidays. Kids don't need to go outside and there are lockers where you can store you stuff so you can play light. If you get a chance go out to the outdoor rides at night for some photo opportunities. Plan you rides so you are not repeatedly going up and down stairs (there are about 4 levels) If you go there by subway the Lotte hotel is probably blocking the view of the park so you will need to walk around either way. Walk left around the left of the hotel to the south gate if you booked online.

We arrived at 7pm and had a great time. The park is clean and well run. However, getting close to 9pm some of the ride attendants would not start rides because there weren't enough people waiting to go on the ride. Let me say, the kids were not happy. That shouldn't happen at this type of fun park. Other than that, all good.

Overall a good theme park the combination of indoor and outdoor parks is great. The park also does well with holiday themed events (Halloween) was pretty neat. Overall the lines were reasonable. The variety of rides is good with enough to satisfy most people. Getting to the theme park is also a breeze with the subway going basically straight to it. When we were there it did seem to have a high number of closes rides which was annoying and as per usual food and drink prices were high. That being said it was much lower than parks in other countries.
