Escape the hot sun and look down on Busan!
Haeundae LCT Observatory X the Sky
From parking to discount tips, it's the 6th Anniversary Event!
Busan's landmark LCT Observatory
has already reached its 6th anniversary!!
With the blue Haeundae sea at your feet,
this place offers thrilling excitement and romance all at once!
This is X the Sky, where I went to escape the hot summer sun.
Boasting the largest scale and second-highest elevation in Korea,
it's a representative landmark of Haeundae.
Unfortunately, on the day I visited, the humidity was very high,
so the visibility wasn't perfectly clear, which was a bit of a shame.
Would I really be able to see the view properly? I went up filled with worry,
but my worries felt utterly unfounded once I was there.
When it's raining, or too hot to walk on the beach,
for those looking for an indoor date spot,
I think this is just the news you need.

Korea's Second Tallest Observatory
As the doors opened and we stepped out into the observatory,
from the dizzying height of 411.6m (Korea's second tallest building),
the entire coastline of Busan unfolded before our eyes.
At first, the weather was a bit cloudy, making everything hazy.
But soon, the sky cleared up, and we could see not just Songjeong and Cheongsapo in the distance,
but even Oryukdo Island, all at a glance!
Since this is a popular spot for international tourists,
there was also a dedicated space introducing famous Korean idol groups,
which was really cool!
Seeing so many people enjoying it,
it made me feel a sense of pride!
Now for the most thrilling spot!
It's the Shocking Bridge, with its transparent glass floor.
It was unbelievable to think that there was a sheer drop of 400 meters right beneath my feet.
While many people were striking bold poses for their souvenir photos,
there were also quite a few who were genuinely scared!
It looks absolutely dizzying, but it's not as scary as you might think!
Can you believe it's already their 6th anniversary?!

definitely participate!
