Lotte World

Pororo! On the day that we visited Lotte World, there were lots of Pororo statues around at the mall area. Each Pororo was doing different activity and they were really adorable!

This building, known as Lotte World Tower, is in the midst of construction and it will be the tallest building in Korea and the fifth tallest building in the world! Standing at 555m tall, it has 123 levels with the tallest man-made observation deck! 

Totoro! 

Pucca!

Here we go!

Carnival show

Lotte World has both indoor and outdoor rides. The outdoor rides are more thrilling but the queues for each ride are also longer. There's Gyro drop, Gyro spin, haunted mansion and a speeding roller coaster, which is a roller coaster running at the fastest speed ever.

Gyro Drop (cue Seventeen's song)

Indoor

This is the roller coaster with the fastest speed. It's so fast, the whole ride feels like merely 5 seconds. Although it looked as though the T-Express at Everland is more scary, this is also on the same level of adrenaline. You don't need a steep and tall drop, you need speed. Prepare your voice to scream. I screamed more for this ride than T-Express. The seat for this roller coaster is also really special. With a seat like a motorbike, you'll feel like you're speeding on a motorbike. And it kind of feels insecure with just a safety barrier on your waist. But the ride is awesome!

Night view

There is an ice-skating rink within the theme park, but the theme park ticket does not include ice-skating. To ice-skate, you will have to purchase the ticket just for ice-skating. However, I'm not sure if there is a combo ticket for both.

Lotte World has 3 versions of ticket. Likewise with Everland, Lotte World do not sell Express ticket, so everybody got to queue equally. If you do want to get the Express ticket, you could wait at special booths to collect the Express pass. But we always miss the timing, so we are not exactly sure how it works. Nonetheless, back to the main topic, there are 3 versions of tickets: one is the full day ticket, which means starting from morning all the way to the night and thus, also the most expensive; another is the late noon ticket which means entrance at around 4pm, so you have lesser time, but the ticket will be cheaper; and last but not least, the night ticket which means entrance at around 6-7pm. This will be the cheapest ticket but the time is thus limited. 

We got to have further discounts as we took our flight by Korea Air, so we just showed them our boarding pass and got additional discounts. Do check out if you airline services provide discounts at Lotte World.
