Bugak Palgakjeong

Great view from.here and free to visit. Only accessible by vehicle, no public transport

I visited the Bugak Palgakjeong Palace in early February. It was a good place to walk around; our Korean guide was very knowledgeable and humorous. I also watched the ceremony of changing guards. It was fun. I would like to recommend it to people, but with enough layers if people visit it during cold winter.

Parking available. Nice view. Quiet peaceful place. Recommendable spot in Seoul.

A really nice place to visit. It was less busy than Namsan tower and I think the view of Seoul might be better. It's a smaller place with a pretty garden. I saw people walking up the route to the top, but I am not sure how long that would take or the difficulty of it. It was very quick to get there by car.

Nice view of Seoul city from higher ground. Less crowded too. Be prepared to hike for a bit though.

The Palgakjeong Pavilion on Bugak Skyway is a place of remarkable serenity and beauty throughout the year. Positioned at an elevation of 345 meters on Bugaksan's extensive 1,652,900 square meter summit, this traditional Korean-style pavilion has captivated many visitors and has become a beloved city attraction. The nighttime views from this pavilion, perched on top of the mountain, are undeniably breathtaking, creating unforgettable moments with cherished loved ones. However, we noticed that the pavilion itself is showing signs of wear and outdatedness. We believe that renovation of the pavilion and overall cleaning of the area could greatly enhance the experience of enjoying this beautiful place.

Can see whole of Seoul from this site

If you want to see Lotte Tower, Namsan Tower and 63 building from one place, this place is good! Must bring your car, there is no available public transportation to go here. This place is also a spot to take city night view as well. Day view is great but night view must be amazing! Parking fee is quite expensive. I got discount coz I ate here at the restaurant but the restaurant only gave 1 hour discount!
