Introduction

Lotte Group built "Lotte World" complex next to the Jamsil Sports Complex to accommodate the 1988 Seoul Olympics. It includes a theme park, cultural museum, department stores, duty-free shops, a five-star hotel, a supermarket, and a Hallyu (Korean Wave) destination. Visitors can find products from all Lotte department stores and duty-free shops here. Lotte World has indoor and outdoor theme parks with a mysterious theme similar to Disneyland. There are daily parade performances that are popular among foreign tourists. Visitors need to adjust their schedule as there are often long queues at the amusement park. It is more suitable to visit on weekdays when it is less crowded. Additionally, Lotte Mart is a large supermarket worth visiting, with a wide range of products and affordable prices. Snacks and Korean cuisine ingredients are great gifts and purchases. Lotte World Starlight Avenue is a must-visit spot for Hallyu fans, with many giant lightboxes and limited edition merchandise of celebrities on display. Admission is free with a Lotte World ticket and a receipt from the Lotte duty-free shop. It is recommended to visit this attraction last when visiting Lotte World.
