Lotte World

From the moment we entered Lotte World, the grand size of this amusement park amazed us. The sheer scale is impressive, with four spacious indoor floors and an expansive outdoor area that offered a vibrant mix of attractions. The colourful decorations, themed zones, and lively atmosphere made it feel like stepping into a whimsical wonderland. However, our excitement was tempered by some frustrations. Many of the popular rides such as the Atlantis were closed without prior notice, which was quite disappointing as we had been looking forward to experiencing them. The rides that were open were heavily crowded, and without purchasing the Magic Pass tickets, we found ourselves queuing for long stretches of time, often longer than the rides themselves. It quickly became clear that Magic Passes are almost essential if you want to make the most of your visit. On the brighter side, we were able to enjoy some of the shows and smaller attractions, and the staff were very friendly and helpful throughout the day. The food stalls offered a variety of local snacks and treats, which gave us a chance to rest and take in the vibrant surroundings. Overall, while Lotte World left a memorable impression with its scale and charm, the experience would have been far more enjoyable had more of the signature attractions been operational and the queues been less daunting. Planning ahead and investing in Magic Pass tickets is highly recommended for a smoother, more thrilling day at the park.

I had never been to an indoor amusement park before, and it was honestly super fun! There was a good variety of attractions and the staff was very friendly. We went on a weekend and there weren't many lines for the rides, plus the theme was 10/10.

It is much larger than I expected. We had a lot of fun today and I would suggest anybody coming to Seoul to stop by. They have an amusement park outside and inside that are a lot better than they look at first glance. If you can afford the magic express pass, then I would suggest doing that if you come during the weekend. The lines are very long… Food wasn’t bad either.

Experience was alright there, but wait times were tremendously long, especially for the more thrilling rides, such as 2hours and 40 minutes for Phantoms Fury. Every ride had more than 30 minutes wait time. It is a good place to bring young kids here, but for those looking for a thrill, this is not a good place to go. When I went, it was raining so I did not manage to try the outdoor rides. Overall, it is a very beautiful place with many nice decorations, but I would not come back again.

lotte world was really cool. never been to an amusement park that’s both indoors and outdoors, and honestly it’s a pretty interesting concept. especially since we went in december and it was freezing. being able to go inside whenever we wanted was perfect. we went on a friday, so there were a lot of school kids, but it wasn’t too bad. we got there around 11 or 12 and stayed until about 7 or 8pm. there’s a good selection of rides and lots of food options, so it’s easy to spend the whole day there. one thing i didn’t like was the reservation system for some of the more popular indoor rides. it felt really weird for an amusement park. rides like viking were basically closed unless you had a reservation, even though there was no queue at all. while we were standing there, only like two or three people actually came through with reservations, and the ride wasn’t even full. i feel like they could easily have a normal queue plus a reservation or fast track system instead of blocking everyone out. size wise, it’s nice but it’s not huge. definitely not disneyland, thorpe park, or six flags level. it feels more like an amusement park than a full theme park, which to me are two different things. still fun, still worth visiting, just good to manage expectations.

This is an awesome theme park for a fun day out. It's a bit like a mix of Disneyland and an indoor park, so it’s great no matter the weather. The rides are thrilling, and the parades are really well-done. The Magic Island part outside is super cool with the castle. It's a perfect place for families or anyone who just wants to have a blast.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Overall, we had a great experience at Lotte World Theme Park. My son is still a little young and couldn’t meet the height requirements for some of the bigger rides, but I was impressed that the park has plenty of similar attractions designed for younger children. It really caters to all ages, so no one feels left out. The park itself is huge—between the indoor Adventure section and the outdoor Magic Island, there’s more than enough to keep a family entertained. Realistically, a visit here will take up your entire day, so plan accordingly. Even though we couldn’t try everything this time, we still enjoyed the variety of rides, the family-friendly atmosphere, and the overall energy of the park. Definitely worth visiting if you’re in Seoul with kids!

Too long waiting lines Forced to watch the parade as the way to the attractions is barred . I had no interest in the parade but ended up forced to watch it We spent more time waiting than actually riding attractions. Staff is doing an amazing work though: very kind and sweet and helpful . They're not to blame for anything, on the contrary: without them I wouldn't have tried any attraction
