Top Nature Spots in Seoul Capital Area

Don't forgot to check the weather! If it's sunny, the outdoor rides are amazing, but if it rains, the indoor ones can get packed very quickly. I ended up missing a lot of rides due to sudden rain.

I suggest buying tickets online in advance to save a few bucks and make your entry smoother. Otherwise, you might find yourself standing in a long line just to buy tickets.

My advice is to download the Lotte World app. It shows ride wait times and maps out everything. It made navigating the park a lot easier – way better than looking at paper maps!

Food can be pricey inside the park, so I suggest bringing some snacks. Just make sure they don't disallow outside food – I saw a couple of folks having to toss their snacks!

If you have little kids, check out the playground areas first. They loved running around there, and it let us recharge before hitting the zoo again!

I suggest getting there around 9 AM to beat the crowds. The early morning vibe is so peaceful, and you can enjoy the animals without the hustle. Plus, it gives you more time to explore!

Don't miss the butterfly conservatory; it's a small fee but totally worth it... I almost skipped it thinking it was just a typical garden, but it was so enchanting!

I recommend bringing a picnic! There are lovely spots to chill and enjoy some food. Plus, it saves you money compared to eating out nearby.

I highly recommend renting a bike to explore Olympic Park. It's such a big area, and cycling makes it way more fun and faster! Plus, it’s pretty budget-friendly too.

I suggest checking out the Peace Park area—it tends to get overshadowed, but it has beautiful sculptures and less crowd. You might even find some quiet spots to relax.
