Seoul’s Neighbourhoods in Autumn, Seoul, South Korea

This year fall started pretty early and was cut short by temperatures plummeting in November. However, we managed to do some short trips (mostly subway rides) around the city and capture the best views of Seoul in this season. 

Bora (my friend) and I had never visited Lotte World Tower before. It was unusually chilly for October. But the reward of the views from the top — made the hour long journey to the other end of Seoul — worth it. Seokchon Lake is one of the top spots for fall views. I had visited it in spring when the trees were bursting with cherry blossoms. The lake is split into two halves and has a walking path around each half. The leaves had started to turn and we forgot how cold it was. Lotte World Adventure was alive with squealing children and Bora wanted to join the fun — on the other side of the lake.
