Lotte World

Lotte World: A Magical Adventure in the Heart of Seoul Lotte World is more than just a theme park; it's a dual-world adventure that you have to experience to believe. With a massive indoor park, Lotte World Adventure, and a thrilling outdoor island, Magic Island, it's the perfect destination for all ages, regardless of the weather. The indoor park is truly a sight to behold. It's one of the world's largest, and you'll find a mix of family-friendly rides, a beautiful ice rink, and stunning parades that make you feel like you've stepped into a fantasy land. The detail in the architecture and the vibrant atmosphere are just amazing. For the thrill-seekers, Magic Island, located on a lake, is where you'll find the most adrenaline-pumping rides. The iconic fairytale castle provides a beautiful backdrop to attractions like the Gyro Drop and Gyro Swing. The view from the top of the rides, overlooking the lake and the city, is simply unforgettable. Whether you're looking to ride thrilling coasters, enjoy a magical parade, or just explore a unique and beautifully designed park, Lotte World has it all. It's an essential stop on any trip to Seoul.

We visited Lotte World on a weekday, thinking it would be a quieter time to explore—but we were definitely mistaken. The park was absolutely packed, and most ride wait times were up to an hour, with some even longer. It’s clearly a popular destination no matter the day. That said, the park itself is vibrant, well-maintained, and full of fun attractions. The energy is contagious, and it’s easy to see why it’s a must-visit for many. In hindsight, opting for the Magic Pass would’ve made a big difference—it allows you to skip the queues and would’ve helped us enjoy more rides in less time. Would I visit again? Perhaps—with better planning and a Magic Pass in hand! For first-timers, it’s worth experiencing the charm, but be prepared for crowds.

My son had a great time — and honestly, so did I! Lotte World is the perfect mix of fun, chaos, and childhood magic. The indoor theme park is huge, which is awesome because you don’t have to worry about the weather ruining your plans. There are rides for all ages, so whether your kid is into gentle carousels or more exciting stuff, there’s something to enjoy. We especially loved the kid-friendly zones — super colorful, safe, and full of energy. The staff were really nice too, which made the whole experience even better. Snacks and food options were a bit pricey (no surprise there), but there were a lot of choices, from quick bites to sit-down meals. It gets crowded, so I’d recommend going early and maybe on a weekday if you can. But overall, it’s a fantastic place to spend a full day — or even just a few hours — making fun memories with your little one. Would totally go back!

My best advice is to prepare to wait and not expect to see everything. We enjoyed walking around even without riding most of the attractions. Too bad there cannot be a way to enter at a lower price just to eat. So many great looking options for food and everything we had was tasty. We were also impressed with the fried chicken and soda served in the same cup...clever. We (two adults) went on a Monday, the end of July and the park was pretty crowded. The space itself handles the crowds well, but the attractions are very low capacity, thus the long waits. Several attractions are virtual reality rides. Many of the ride systems were unique and very clever. Some rides, like the balloons were, perhaps, more fascinating to watch than ride. I have to say, the characters are some of the cutest of any theme park. The theming of the spaces were also well done. We got the park and museum combo which saved us money. We glad we did. The museum full of diorama and large scale models were very impressive.

On one of the hottest days in Summer the biggest indoor theme park is a great place to have fun. The meal options are vase and were surprisingly decent quality. The queues are long on the popular rides and on the day of my visit there are wait times from 5-20mins. Purchased my tickets on the 3rd party sites to get a discount. The facilities were clean and well managed. There were various rides unavailable on the day not sure if it was due to the heat. The school uniform dress up was popular.

I visited Lotte World 3 years ago, and it was an unforgettable experience. The theme park was full of exciting rides, beautiful decorations, and fun activities for all ages. I really enjoyed the indoor park because it was colorful, clean, and well-organized. Even though it was crowded, everything was smooth, and the staff were friendly. One of the best parts of my visit was going up to the top of the Lotte World Tower. The view from the top was absolutely breathtaking! It felt amazing to see the whole city of Seoul from so high above. I even took some photos there to remember the moment. Overall, my experience at Lotte World was fun, exciting, and full of great memories. I would definitely love to visit again someday

The amusement park was really big and had indoor and outdoor attractions. Went during the summer times and the weather was really hot and sunny. Do recommend to bring sunscreen and a cap if waiting for attractions in the sun. Magic pass was also a good purchase as the queues to popular rides are super long( 1-2hrs ). Overall, was a fun experience.

Lotte World looks like a really fun amusement park! I didn’t go inside, but spent some time around the outside area and it was really nice. Great views, lively atmosphere, and plenty to see even from the outside. Would love to come back and explore more next time!
