Seoul Olympic Park seen from above: the round waterside stage and its pond at the centre, ringed by trees in fresh spring leaf, with the World Peace Gate and its painted canopy standing to the right, and the towers of Jamsil with Lotte World Tower rising behind.

Olympic Park

The venue complex built for the 1988 Olympics shares one perimeter with an earthen fortress from the early Baekje period. Several of the arenas have been renamed and now host concerts, so sports halls, an archaeological site and concert venues sit on the same walking route.

Visibility matters more than the clock: check weather and haze, reserve sunset periods early, and distinguish general observatory admission from paid add-on experiences.

An aisle in the seafood halls of Garak Market: stalls and live tanks of fish and shellfish on both sides, traders in aprons and rubber gloves working at the counters, and a dense canopy of lit signs overhead naming the shops and their catch.

Garak Market

A public wholesale market run by the Seoul Agro-Fisheries & Food Corporation. Each division auctions on its own clock — fruit and vegetables are scattered from 02:00 to 23:00 by commodity, seafood opens at 23:00 with fresh fish. The grounds stay open around the clock, but no auction runs from Saturday evening to Sunday dawn.

Lotte World Adventure

Its indoor areas make it useful in poor weather, but crowds still shape the visit; confirm the day's hours and suspended attractions before buying or reserving.
